«Discurs del mètode» is the philosophical essay by René Descartes, published by Edicions 62 in 1996 (188 pages, in Catalan).
Descartes proposes a path to knowledge based on reason and a rigorous examination of ideas. Against received opinion, he advocates subjecting everything to methodical doubt and breaking problems down into parts to arrive at clear and distinct truths. The work reflects on existence and knowledge, and became a landmark of modern thought.
For philosophy students and for those approaching the classics of rationalism.
René Descartes was a French philosopher, scientist, logician, and mathematician, widely considered a seminal figure in the emergence of modern philosophy and science during the Renaissance era. Mathematics was paramount to his method of inquiry, and he connected the previously separate fields of geometry and algebra into analytic geometry.
