This Penguin Classic, narrated by Rory Alexander, presents René Descartes' seminal work, Discourse on Method, where he explores the interplay between mathematics and experimental sciences. Descartes articulates the hypothetical method that underpins modern scientific inquiry, contrasting it with traditional Aristotelian techniques. His groundbreaking ideas, particularly on the divergence between perception and reality, have significantly shaped the field of modern philosophy.
