Publisher's Synopsis
Ren Descartes is one of the formative figures in Western philosophy, logic and mathematics. His famous statement: I think, therefore I am, has become perhaps the most famous phrase in all of philosophy. Descartess ground-breaking writings attempted to establish unshakeable foundations of knowledge, and set a trend for subsequent Western philosophy, which has endlessly critiqued and expanded upon his ideas. This title is read by Jonathan Oliver with Roy McMillan. It introduces the listener to the life and work of one of the greatest thinkers of all time.
