Meer over het boek

René Descartes' journey from a Jesuit education to military engineering laid the foundation for his revolutionary philosophy rooted in mathematics. His divine visions in 1619 inspired a transformative approach to understanding existence, culminating in his famous declaration "I think, therefore I am." In Simply Descartes, Professor Kurt Smith presents an accessible exploration of Descartes' ideas, including his contributions to analytic geometry and metaphysics, inviting readers to engage with profound questions about reality and existence that resonate with contemporary thought.
