This work - and its referent, the book: El Salto Humano en el Cosmos (The human leap in the Cosmos) - is about the human being; the human world in its own space-time and in the universe. It is the being that performs a unique cosmic leap, a human blooming; a lighthouse of life. Humanity is singular specie, with values, senses and discoveries; without hiding their falls and nonsense, struggling tirelessly. They construct world and their own worlds. And they also use their exclusive ability to criticize and blame themselves because of their mistakes; as their value codes, ideas and beliefs reveal. And in this crucial state of habitat, history and human projection is not noticed enough. On the contrary, it is darkened, it becomes usual and common. So, we have to uncover, as it was affirmed by philosophy as well as from the science through many discoveries and achievements. Consequently, a theory comprehensive enough to better know what have been done, the continuous creations and the appropriate improvements are needed. Here we are summarizing the book mentioned below and the theory-practice that explains the dimensions and perspectives of the human world and its cosmic leap. Based on research and analysis eight-n dimensions considered essential have been selected: language - symbol - biology - nature - individual - society - rule - power. To which n additional dimensions are added. This set opens human freedom among many characteristics that enrich this path. Then, sciences, mathematics, philosophy, technology, art, customs, practices -specific and intertwine - perform a world and a singular and multiple human being, who leaps tirelessly in the cosmos. This is a conceptual and operational proposal which allows a better approach to this issue. The human being is an exception in the universe, even when there are other beings, because there is an existential platform that projects him to the infinite
