Features: René Descartes, a philosopher who played a significant role in the history of philosophy. Historically, people have had diverse evaluations of Descartes' philosophy—some highly praised it, while others viewed it less favorably. However, all acknowledged him as a profound philosopher. This article attempts to re-examine René Descartes as a person and his philosophical thoughts within the dialectical development of history, offering some personal insights for reference. This book is a representative work of Descartes and also his debut. It is divided into six parts:
1. Descartes' views on various fields of knowledge;
2. The principles Descartes sought to establish the method;
3. Several behavioral guidelines derived from the method;
4. The reasons Descartes used to prove the existence of God and the human soul;
5. A series of physical problems Descartes studied;
6. The things Descartes believed must be done to further natural research, as well as the reasons that prompted him to write this book.
This book is widely recognized as a declaration of modern philosophy, raising the banner of rationalist epistemology.
