Description: | Select Guide Rating This edition of Descartes' seminal discourse is designed to provide the student with a close translation to facilitate access to ideas as they were originally presented, helping to make the translator's work transparent. Includes an original essay by Richard Kennington, notes, and a glossary of key terms. By far the most widely used translation in North American college classrooms, Donald A. Cress''s translation from the French of the Adam and Tannery critical edition is prized for its accuracy, elegance, and economy. The translation featured in the Third Edition has been thoroughly revised from the 1979 First Edition and includes page references to the critical edition for ease of comparison. |
