N2  - FUNDAEC in Colombia brings together three units of study from its text Basic Concepts, The Language of Descriptions and Moral Capabilities. The volume belongs to a series of books constituting a program by the same name promoted by that organization. In most educational systems, pressures created by intense competition oblige high school and undergraduate students to spend enormous energy in preparing themselves for examinations of various types. As a result, preparation for life-long education and for effective action directed towards the transformation of society is neglected. The program on Intellectual Preparation for Social Action is designed to fill this gap. It seeks to respond to the educational needs of an increasing number of individuals who, aware of the crisis of education, are attracted to the challenges of intellectual activity in consonance with spiritual aspiration
