Resumen

The paper illustrates the possibility of relating the fundamental laws of logical thinking with the basic principles to thermodynamics. According to this hypothesis, the idea of a “transcendental realm” that hosts the a priori categories of understanding is no longer needed, because human logic can be regarded as the result of a process of fine-tuning in our mind’s ability to perceive of patterns of identity and change in nature.
