To confront the philosophical system of Rene Descartes is to
contemplate a magnificently laid out map of human cognitive
endeavour. In following Descartes arguments, the reader is drawn
into some of the most fundamental and challenging issues in all of
philosophy. In this dictionary, John Cottingham presents an
alphabetied guide to this most stimulating and widely-studied of
philosophers. He examines the key concepts and ideas in Cartesian
thought and places them in the context both of the
seventeenth-century intellectual climate and of subsequent
interpretation. The entries range over a wide variety of areas
including cosmology, physics, theology, psychology and ethics. The
book is designed to appeal to the newcomer to Descartes, whether
student or general reader, while also providing detailed critical
comment and precise textual references for the more advanced
reader. Also included are a general introduction describing
Descartes' life and works, and bibliographic guide to the Cartesian
texts and the mass of interpretative literature on Descartes.
