- Summary:
- This text is an original, counter-conventional account of the revolution in philosophy begun by Descartes, around the time of Galileo's revolution. Like Galileo, Descartes relied on pictures to tell his transformational story. This book shows dozens of fascinating pictures, and explains how they worked, not as decorations but as explanations.
