"Offers a rare and accessible survey of the questions that motivate one of the most important interpreters of Descartes in the twentieth century." -- -Jeffrey Kosky Washington & Lee University "To read Jean-Luc Marion on Descartes provokes the same sorts of excitement, surprise, disagreement and admiration that an earlier generation experienced when reading Martin Heidegger on Nietzsche. If Marion is less exorbitant than Heidegger, he is more exacting in what he demands of Descartes's writings. One thing is certain: no one who reads Descartes can afford not to read Marion on Descartes." -- -Kevin Hart University of Virginia "... Marion's project is immensely rich, subtle, and inventive." -Christianity and Literature
