La vida y su sentido

Synopsis of La vida y su sentido

«La vida y su sentido: Abriendo caminos» is the essay by Gumersindo Rego Fernández, published by Caligrama in paperback (346 pages, in Spanish).

The essay explores whether the keys to the meaning of life and solutions to problems such as ageing and death lie in nature and the human mind. To do so, it traces the evolutionary lines of the universe and life, from physics to metaphysics, and suggests that the brain's structure can guide evolution and help give meaning to existence.
