The book explores life as a stage in the development of cosmic matter, inseparable from the physics and chemistry of nature. From the space-time structure of the universe and the movement of matter and energy to the physical constants that determine atomic stability, the work shows that life is not a metaphysical phenomenon but an intrinsic possibility of the physical world. The formation of chemical elements in stellar cores, the evolution of open systems under thermodynamic influence, and the emergence of local order amid increased entropy have laid the groundwork for organic and biological chemistry. From there, life is understood as a highly organized form of matter in a state far from equilibrium, capable of self-sustaining energy exchange and evolution. Man appeared as a late result of that history: a biological entity capable of perceiving and modifying the environment. The book aims to create a continuous view from physics and chemistry to biology, to place life and people back in the historical depths of the physical universe.
