Summary "Recuerdos de mi vida (tomo 2 de 2)" by Santiago Ramón y Cajal is a memoir chronicling the author's scientific journey, written in the early 20th century. This second volume differs significantly from the first, focusing more on his later years and professional endeavors rather than his artistic inclinations. Cajal reflects on his quest to establish histology in Spain, driven by patriotism and a desire to elevate the country's scientific standing while navigating challenges in his personal and academic life. The opening of this memoir reveals Cajal's determination to pursue a career in academia after graduation, detailing his initial struggles during the late 1870s as he prepared for teaching positions. He encounters various obstacles, including failed examinations and the limitations of his educational resources in Zaragoza. As he dedicates himself to the microscopic study of anatomy and histology, he builds a rudimentary laboratory and learns through self-study, driven by a passion for discovery. Through his early experiences, the opening sets the stage for his later achievements and contributions to science, establishing a narrative of perseverance in the face of adversity.
