In 1920, the Dominican monk Sertillanges wrote "The Intellectual Life: Its Spirit, Conditions, Methods," a masterpiece that proposed to address the Sixteen Precepts of Saint Thomas, but which gained practical substance for preparation during and after study. "The Intellectual Life" goes beyond observations for studies. They are completely perennial and fundamental methods for the development of humans as intelligent beings. Praised by intellectuals, critics, and specialized journalists like Olavo de Carvalho, Felipe Moura Brasil, among numerous others, the enduring success of "The Intellectual Life" is the greatest proof of its value.
Philosophy confronted with things is thought confronted with chaos. To our mind things are in chaos, for, though we notice that they are, superficially, and, we presume, fundamentally in order, still our minds are restless, because we cannot fully comprehend this order. We may grasp its main outlines, but we are at a loss when we come to examine it more closely, and the farther we go into it, the more we find ourselves faced by a mystery.

En 1920, el monje dominicano Sertillanges escribió " La Vida Intelectual: Su espíritu, sus condiciones, sus métodos", una obra maestra que proponía abordar los Dieciséis Preceptos de Santo Tomás, pero que adquirió una forma práctica para la preparación durante y después del estudio. La Vida Intelectual va más allá de las meras observaciones sobre los estudios. Son métodos completamente perdurables y fundamentales para el desarrollo humano como ser dotado de inteligencia. Elogiada por intelectuales, críticos y periodistas especializados, el éxito duradero de "La Vida Intelectual" es la prueba máxima de su valor.
