Bibliophile price £4.50


Renee Descartes (1596-1650) was the father of modern philosophy and one of the greatest thinkers in history. His genius lies at the core of our contemporary intellectual identity. He broke the conventions of his own time and suffered persecution by the Church as a consequence. Most of his writings are philosophical classics, attempting to answer questions surrounding the self, God, free will and knowledge and using the science of thought as opposed to received wisdom based on faith. This edition is the most comprehensive one-volume selection available and includes his great essay, Discourse on Method. 407 page paperback.
