Book Description

January 1, 2005 1420926721 978-1420926729
Contained here are two of the most important philosophy works ever written, Descartes' "Discourse on the Method of Rightly Conducting the Reason and Seeking for Truth in the Sciences" and "Meditations on First Philosophy." Descartes, who is considered to be one of the founding fathers of modern philosophy, lays forth the basics of his philosophy and expounds upon such monumental issues as the nature of knowledge and existence itself in these two important and pivotal works.

4.0 out of 5 stars Cogito Ergo Sum, April 25, 2009
This review is from: Discourse on Method and Meditations on First Philosophy (Paperback)
Descartes is reasonably approachable for a philosopher - and he discusses his theory on being "Cogito ero sum", as well as the proof for the existence of God. An important foundational work. If you are in to philosophy, this is a good read.
