Beskrivning
Descartes' Meditations is one of the first texts that a philosophy student will study, and one that many come back to time and again. Rather than simply telling the reader what to think, Meditations invites us to take a philosophical journey. This book prepares readers for that journey, helping them to engage with each of the meditations and suggesting ways through the more difficult passages. This guide also offers students a fresh approach by bringing to life the path of self-discovery encapsulated in the work, while maintaining the emphasis on metaphysics. By focusing on what the text itself has to say, rather than what has been said about it by others, it will help readers at all levels to discover - or rediscover - why Descartes' Meditations is one of the cornerstones of philosophy.

Strikingly fresh and unfailingly astute, Brandhorst's guidebook reconnects us with a crucial but often neglected dimension of Descartes' classic text -- the way in which it structures a path to individual philosophical self-discovery. The result is a distinctive and valuable resource for students and teachers of the Meditations, one that deserves to be widely read. -- Professor Michael Wheeler, University of Stirling Strikingly fresh and unfailingly astute, Brandhorst's guidebook reconnects us with a crucial but often neglected dimension of Descartes' classic text -- the way in which it structures a path to individual philosophical self-discovery.
