Meanings. In search of oneself.

Throughout history, understanding one's own essence has been a concern for thinking individuals. Ancient philosophers mainly made speculative conclusions, while modern scientists have the opportunity to explore human nature using scientific methods. However, there is still no definitive answer to the question of human essence. The author of this book contributes to the discussion of the ambiguity and complexity of human nature. He touches upon all the main spheres of our lives in which people reveal themselves: society and culture, science and technology, war and peace, life and death. In addition, the reader, along with the author, can contemplate true and false values, happiness, love, friendship, respect, duty, and try to answer the troubling question of how to live in society, maintain one's freedom, and not be a lonely wanderer.
