The Principles of Philosophy By Rene Descartes The only apprehension I entertain is lest the title should deter some who have not been brought up to letters, or with whom philosophy is in bad repute, because the kind they were taught has proved unsatisfactory; and this makes me think that it will be useful to add a preface to it for the purpose of showing what the MATTER of the work is, what END I had in view in writing it, and what UTILITY may be derived from it. But although it might be my part to write a preface of this nature, seeing I ought to know those particulars better than any other person, I cannot nevertheless prevail upon myself to do anything more than merely to give a summary of the chief points that fall, as I think, to be discussed in it: and I leave it to your discretion to present to the public such part of them as you shall judge proper.
Middle Way Philosophy
"A departure at right angles to thinking in the modern Western world. An important, original work, that should get the widest possible hearing" (Iain McGilchrist, author of The Master and his Emissary) Middle Way Philosophy is not about compromise, but about the avoidance of dogma and the integration of conflicting assumptions. To rely on experience as our guide, we need to avoid the interpretation of experience through unnecessary dogmas. Drawing on a range of influences in Buddhist practice, Western philosophy and psychology, Middle Way Philosophy questions alike the assumptions of scientific naturalism, religious revelation and political absolutism, trying to separate what addresses experience in these doctrines from what is merely assumed. This Omnibus edition of Middle Way Philosophy includes all four of the volumes previously published separately: 1. The Path of Objectivity, 2. The Integration of Desire, 3. The Integration of Meaning, and 4. The Integration of Belief.

" Le Discours de la méthode (sous-titré : Pour bien conduire sa raison, et chercher la vérité dans les sciences) est un texte philosophique publié anonymement par René Descartes à Leyde le 8 juin 1637. Il devait originellement servir d'introduction générale aux traités scientifiques écrits par l'auteur (La Dioptrique, Les Météores et La Géométrie). Il s'agissait pour Descartes « d’en dire assez pour faire juger que les nouvelles opinions, qui se verraient dans la Dioptrique et dans les Météores, n’étaient point conçues à la légère. Toutefois, la célébrité du texte est devenue telle, qu’il est désormais souvent publié seul, comme un essai indépendant. Il est reconnu comme l'une des œuvres fondatrices de la philosophie occidentale."
