The Philosopher, the Priest, and the Painter: A Portrait of Descartes

In the Louvre museum hangs a portrait of a middle-aged man and he is dressed in the starched white collar and black coat of the typical Dutch burgher. The painting is now the iconic image of Ren Descartes, the great seventeenth-century French philosopher. This book offers an exploration of a celebrated philosopher's world and work.
