This book provides a valuable understanding on the different views of the passions in the Seventeenth Century. The contributors show that fundamental questions about the nature of wisdom, goodness and beauty were understood in terms of the contrast between reason and passions in this era. Those with an interest in philosophy , the history of medicene, and women's studies will find this collection a fascinating read.
Reader in Philosophy at the University of Sydney, and a Fellow of the Australian Academy of Humanities. He has written several books, including Descartes: An Intellectual Biography, Cartesian Logic, and Arnauld: On True and False Ideas.
