In this study, Thomas Sorell seeks to rehabilitate views that are
highly unpopular in analytic philosophy and often instantly
dismissed. His book serves as an interpretation, if not outright
revision, of unreconstructed Cartesianism and responds directly to
some of the critique of contemporary philosophy. To identify what
is defensible in Cartesianism, Sorell starts with a picture of
unreconstructed Cartesianism, which is characterized as realistic;
anti-skeptical but respectful of skepticism; rationalist; centered
on the first person; dualist; and dubious of the comprehensiveness
of natural science and its supposed independence of metaphysics.
Bridging the gap between history of philosophy and analytic
philosophy, Sorell also shows, for the first time, how some
contemporary analytic philosophy is deeply Cartesian.
