Über diesen Titel

Descartes is perhaps best known for his statement, "Cogito, ergo sum," the cornerstone of his metaphysics. But he did not intend the metaphysics to stand apart from his scientific work, which included important investigations into physics, mathematics, and optics. In this book, Sorell shows that Descarates was, above all, an advocate and practitioner of the new mathematical approach to physics, and that he developed his philosophies to support his discoveries in the sciences.

A good overview within the limits of the VSI series but annoyingly presented. Every time there is a quote the narrator changes her tone in a genuinely weird and inappropriate manner which - for me - made it hard to concentrate on what was actually being said.

Content as expected from an Oxford VSI, annoying narrator
