«El discurso del método» is the philosophical essay by René Descartes, published by Ediciones Akal in paperback (96 pages, in Spanish).
In this text, Descartes explains his method for attaining true knowledge through reason and methodical doubt. The work combines philosophy, personal memoir and science: the author speaks in the first person, distances himself from medieval scholasticism and describes the path that founds modern thought.
Volume 64 of the Bolsillo collection from Ediciones Akal. The work was originally published in 1637.
Of interest to students and readers of modern philosophy, history of thought and classics of science.
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.
