This is an anthropological essay that studies social dynamics of Mexicos city from the perspective of its inhabitants. An analysis about the relationship of their everyday life with the history of the city is made from questionnaires and the exhibitions of images to a group of people- taxi drivers, traffic cops, deliverymen of goods, students, housewives, street sellers and middle class motorists.

Noted novelist and short story writer Juan Rulfo (b. México), was also an accomplished photographer whose black and white photographs were seldom published in his lifetime. The book reviews a selection of his photographs taken between 1940's and 1960's.

Pasos supone el reencuentro con una paradoja: descubrir, a través de imágenes de diversos fotógrafos de Cantabria, algunos de los paisajes de la UC. Lugar extenso y múltiple, casi mágico para quien no lo conozca demasiado. Cualidad contradictoria con su naturaleza, porque lo que ocurre entre sus paredes forma parte del método científico, nada tiene que ver con magia o esoterismo, sino con el estudio minucioso de cada una de las especialidades que configuran la UC, contribuyendo al desarrollo de la sociedad de Cantabria y al avance de la ciencia.
