Title: Descartes and the last scholastics
First published: 1999
Description: Roger Ariew argues here that Cartesian philosophy should be regarded as it was in Descartes's own day - as a reaction against, as well as indebted to, Scholastic philosophy. His book illuminates Cartesian philosophy by analyzing debates between Descartes and contemporary Schoolmen and surveying controversies arising in its first reception.
