«Discurso del método» is the philosophical essay by René Descartes that includes «Reglas para la dirección de la mente», in hardcover (280 pages, in Spanish).
In this essay, Descartes explains how to subject beliefs to methodical doubt to find evident principles and build secure knowledge. He reviews his education, distinguishes the soul from the body, and defends reason as the path to truth. The work includes «Reglas para la dirección de la mente», a method to guide the understanding.
This edition brings together the translation by Antonio Rodríguez Huéscar and Francisco de P. Samaranch. The work was originally published in 1637 as «Discours de la Méthode».
For philosophy students and for those approaching the classics of modern 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.
