      Exploring the existential crisis of modernity, this work emphasizes the importance of meaning obscured by technological influences. By integrating ideas from philosophers like Wittgenstein and Nietzsche, the author argues that our minds are interconnected with a shared biological and cultural inheritance. The increasing mediation of technology threatens our sense of worldliness, dignity, and value, leading to a loss of mindedness. Engaging with topics such as the mind-body problem and artificial intelligence, the book encourages readers to reflect on crucial issues affecting the meaning of life.
