Part of the prestigious Cambridge Companions series, this scholarly anthology brings together leading academic essays on one of the most influential thinkers in the history of Western philosophy, René Descartes. The collection presents a comprehensive survey of Descartes' thought, covering his contributions to metaphysics, epistemology, philosophy of mind, mathematics, and natural science. Each essay, written by a distinguished scholar, illuminates a different dimension of the Cartesian system — from the famous method of doubt and the cogito to his groundbreaking work in analytical geometry and the mind-body problem. Edited by John Cottingham, one of the foremost Descartes scholars in the world, this volume serves as an authoritative and indispensable guide for students and academics alike seeking a rigorous engagement with Cartesian philosophy.
