"La vieja y tradicional Lgica de Aristteles y Bacon ya no satisface a este mundo nuevo de la Cultura. En sta encontramos, ya no el mundo del "ser" sino fundamentalmente el mundo del "devenir"; ya no la ley "necesaria", sino la finalidad "contingente", ya no la simplicidad cuantitativa o cualitativa, sino el complejo biolgico y espiritual" -Dr. Adalberto Garca de Mendoza

Ce livre s'attache à suivre certaines de ses campagnes, retraçant une trajectoire qui va de son...
