La simulación en la lucha por la vida by José Ingenieros

Description

La simulación en la lucha por la vida by José Ingenieros is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. This work examines the concept of simulation as a means of survival in both biological and societal contexts, focusing on how various organisms, including humans, employ deceptive strategies to thrive. Ingenieros blends insights from natural sciences with reflections on human psychology and societal dynamics to frame a comprehensive view of the role of simulation in life. The opening of the book presents an introduction by the author, acknowledging the historical context of the text and its origins as part of his thesis on the simulation of madness. He draws a parallel between natural phenomena of simulation seen in various species and the complexities of human behavior, emphasizing how simulation serves as a defensive mechanism in the struggle for survival. Ingenieros reflects on the foundations laid by previous thinkers and how the study of psychopathology connects to broader discussions about human nature and societal interactions, ultimately setting the stage for an exploration of the multifaceted roles of simulation in both the natural world and human society.
