Summary:These two 1985 volumes provide a translation of the philosophical works of Descartes, based on the best available Latin and French texts. They are intended to replace the only reasonably comprehensive selection of his works in English, by Haldane and Ross, first published in 1911.

The result should meet the widespread demand for an accurate and authoritative edition of Descartes' philosophical writings in clear and readable modern English
