Un astrofísico realiza un llamamiento fascinante ?y urgente? a una nueva «Ilustración» para socorrer a la humanidad mientras nos enfrentamos a la crisis existencial del cambio climático. Gleiser argumenta que estamos utilizando el paradigma equivocado para relacionarnos con el universo y entender nuestro lugar en él. En El universo consciente nos invita a que adoptemos una nueva perspectiva centrada en la vida, que reconozca lo rara y valiosa que es, y por qué debería ser nuestra misión preservarla y cuidarla. El paradigma de Gleiser replantea los ideales de la modernidad y propone una nueva dirección para la humanidad, impulsada por la razón y la curiosidad (precisamente, motores de la ciencia), y cuyo propósito sería reubicarnos como el lugar donde la vida se hace consciente. De esta forma, recuperaríamos una brújula moral que podría utilizarse tanto para guiar la ciencia como la política que orbita en torno a ella.
