«Reglas para la dirección del espíritu» is the philosophical essay by René Descartes, published by Alianza in paperback (192 pages, in Spanish).
Begun in 1628 and published after Descartes's death, the work sets out rules to guide reason toward truth and lay the foundations of modern scientific thought. Heidegger highlighted the importance of this work for understanding modern science; the text is laden with philosophical-metaphysical implications.
Original title: «Regulae ad directionem ingenii». Edition translated and with an introduction by Juan Manuel Navarro Cordón. El Libro de Bolsillo – Philosophy collection.
Aimed at readers interested in Cartesian thought, modern philosophy, and the origins of the scientific method.
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.
