A collection of works by René Descartes on the principles of mathematics and natural philosophy. Although the work itself was published posthumously, its content reflects his attempt to apply mathematical rigor to a comprehensive view of the universe and brings together some of the most important Cartesian principles, especially those related to analytic geometry and the laws of motion. Rare.
