The mentioned article was written by Ettore Majorana, in a partiallyeducational way, for a journal of Sociology; but he gave up publishing it (andthrew it away). It appeared posthumous, thanks to Giovanni Gentile Jr. (theinventor of "parastatistics") in "Scientia" 36 (1942) 58-66. It has not beenre-published, in Italian, till the beginning of 2006, when we made known someabridgements of it by Italian newspapers and by the journal "Fisica inMedicina". We don't know when was it written: perhaps in 1930. However, itscentral theme was still alive in Majorana's mind in 1934: in fact, on July 27,1934, he will write to G.Gentile Jr. to expect that <<soon it will be generallyunderstood that science ceased to be a justification for the vulgarmaterialism>>. Here, in Part I, we present a suitable reduction, edited by us,of Majorana's article; while in Part II we add a complete transcription of it.[Since the paper which appeared in "Scientia" contains some errors in theinterpretation of Majorana's handwriting, the present versions have been veryslightly "corrected" by us]. For the translations into English of Majorana'spaper, see Refs.[5,6] below. A more extended Summary (in English, besides inItalian) can be found at the beginning of the present e-print. The interestedreader can found all the known biographical documents --apart from the onesdiscovered during the last two years-- in the book by E.Recami, "Il CasoMajorana: Epistolario, Testimonianze, Documenti" (Mondadori, Milan, 1987 and1991; Di Renzo Editore, Rome, 2000 and 2002); and in the e-printsarXiv:physics/9810023v4 [physics.hist-ph]; arXiv:0708.2855v1 [physics.hist-ph];and arXiv:0709.1183 [physics.hist-ph].
