In Search of Ourselves: Exploring the Origins, Meaning, and Future of Human Existence

by Clovis de Baros Filho, Pedro Calabrez

Overview

Who are we? Where did we come from? Where are we going? It’s a common question, it’s true. But who hasn’t thought about it at least once in their life? The question of our existence, origin and destiny has been the subject of deep reflection by humanity’s greatest thinkers for three thousand years and, more recently, by scientists. The questions have been the same since man began to think. The answers have not. Quite the opposite.
