«El universo accidental» is Paul Davies's popular science essay, published by Salvat in hardcover (174 pages, in Spanish).
Paul Davies asks whether the universe is an accident and analyzes whether physical structure responds to mathematical properties. He reviews a series of apparently miraculous coincidences that have made possible the existence of atoms, stars, galaxies and life, and concludes that there is an effect of biological and cosmic selection.
The edition corresponds to number 56 of the Biblioteca Científica Salvat and was published in Barcelona in 1986. The original title of the work is «The Accidental Universe» (1982).
Work suitable for readers interested in physics, cosmology and questions about the origin of the universe.
