«Discurso del método / Meditaciones metafísicas» is the philosophy volume by René Descartes, published by Libsa in paperback (256 pages, in Spanish).
In these two works of rationalism, Descartes subjects received knowledge to methodical doubt in order to ground knowledge in reason. The Discourse on the Method explains this procedure and its first certainty, the «pienso, luego existo»; the Meditations on First Philosophy examine the nature of the soul, the existence of God, and the reality of the material world.
The volume belongs to the Grandes Pensadores collection and includes the preface-letter that Descartes placed before The Principles of Philosophy.
Suitable for philosophy students and for those seeking an introduction to Descartes's thought.
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.
