About this ebook
One of the main limitations of materialism is the lack of adequate tools to explain subtle and complex phenomena such as consciousness, aesthetic experience and the meaning of human existence. These immaterial aspects of the human being cannot simply be reduced to electrical processes in the brain or chemical reactions, since they imply an interaction between the physical and metaphysical dimensions.
Furthermore, the materialist vision encounters insurmountable limits when addressing aspects of the universe such as the origin of life, free will and the profound meaning of existence.
Fortunately, the advent of quantum physics has led to discoveries that challenge this reductionist view. The quantum nature of reality and Heisenberg's uncertainty principle highlight the importance of the observer and the need for a new way of conceiving matter itself.
Over the last century, quantum physics has heavily refuted the materialist paradigm, shaking the foundations of our way of interpreting the world. The analysis of this turning point appears pervaded by bewilderment and regret as it revealed the intrinsic errors and scientific groundlessness that characterized historical materialism. Today, new scientific knowledge allows us to rewrite the script of our certainties in terms of knowledge and understanding of the cosmos.
The inexorable force of discoveries in the quantum field has powerfully undermined the conceptual strongholds of materialism. A new scientific paradigm confirms that everything we considered solid and unassailable has actually turned out to be fragile and permeable. The real world is infinitely more subtle and complex than we imagined.
