Description:
London: Simon & Schuster, 2005. 1st ed.. Hardback large octavo, dustjacket, very good condition (in very good dustjacket), colour & black & white & few sepia (brown-tinted) photos, minor edgewear jacket. 352 pp. In this new biography of the French philosopher Rene Descartes, the philosopher A. C. Grayling tells the story of Descartes' life, and places it in his tumultuous times - with the unexpected result that an entirely new aspect of his story comes to light. This is the fullest ever biography of a philosopher whose writings remain on the syllabuses of almost every university in the world over 350 years after his death. The author has drawn on new research and his own insights as one of our leading philosophers, to write a fascinating story of the man and the remarkable era in which he lived.
