Meditations on First Philosophy And Other Metaphysical Writings

"The treatise in this distinctly designed ornate edition offers Descartes metaphysical views on the relationship between the mind and thought, the nature of reality and how accumulated knowledge and our experiences affect us. First published in 1641, the work consists of six meditations on the following topics: the dubiousness of thoughts and assumptions; the nature of the human mind; the existence of God; truth versus falsehood; the essence of material things and, finally, the difference between mind and body."--
