Présentation de l'éditeur

When Huxley declares thatD escartes advanced vbeyond his age and anticipated what would be the thoughts of all men three hundred years after him, he has mainly in view Descartes achievements in the natural sciences. And in that relation the assertion is undoubtedly justified. In a more adequat manner than even Galileo orB acon, Descartes formulated the methods and defined the ideals of modernflcignce. A very different estimate must, however, be made of his work in metaphysics.
