 This collection from the Father of Modern Western Philosophy will make you realise what a mentally stagnant age we live in.

 A good read. Sound epistemology: dualist. He is the one who said "I think therefore I am". Many philosophers still debate his work and feel that they have to overthrow his notions about soul and body; very few, if any, have credible arguments that prove him wrong.

 What a fucking idiot. He might be the sole reason that philosophers are stigmatized as deranged individuals. Constantly contradicting himself and evidently, nuts.

 I think Descartes is my soul mate. His words seem to generate somewhere in the recesses of MY mind. Crazy.

 Of course I can't justify anything below a 5-star for Descartes' work; I can, however, question the selections of the author of this compilation: Cotting, what the hell? Why exactly did you choose what you did? What the hell is the value of including Descartes' exploration into Optics in a philosophical compilation? None! Especially when you don't even transition them into one another.. Blah.. but other than that the selections seemed fairly justified.

 One of the most important philosophical writings in the last 500 years. It set the tone and the discussion for modern philosophy.
