In the first chapter, Merlí invites his students to form a group called the "peripatetics," referring to the group of followers of Aristotle. This name has its origin in a Greek word that means "walk", as the teacher taught while walking with his disciples.

It is a series that moves and guides us through several everyday issues that relate to philosophical thinking, which enhances the value of thinking and reflecting. The different adolescent characters are shown in continuous search for answers something very typical of their age, which defines them as people.
This teacher who breaks schemes and does not show a moral norm, manages to enchant his students and involves them in the world of the different philosophers who are studying chapter by chapter.

In this varied group we can find young people with different realities as in everyday life, children of separated parents, a gay boy, a single mother, etc. all very well linked to the theme that is developed in each chapter.
In short, a good story to review the different philosophical currents and their connection to the real world.
