    De homine was completed in Holland about 1633, on the eve of the condemnation of Galileo. When Descartes' friend and frequent correspondent, Marin Mersenne, wrote to him of Galileo's fate at the hands of the Inquisition, Descartes immediately suppressed his own treatise. As a result, the world's first extended essay on physiological psychology was published only well after its author's death.
    In this work, Descartes proposed a mechanism [see figure 2] for automatic reaction in response to external events. According to his proposal, external motions affect the peripheral ends of the nerve fibrils , which in turn displace the central ends. As the central ends are displaced, the pattern of interfibrillar space is rearranged and the flow of animal spirits is thereby directed into the appropriate nerves. It was Descartes' articulation of this mechanism for automatic, differentiated reaction that led to his generally being credited with the founding of reflex theory.

    scholastic philosophy and troubled by skepticism of the sort expounded by Montaigne , Descartes soon conceived a comprehensive plan for applying mathematical methods in order to achieve perfect certainty in human knowledge. During a twenty-year period of secluded life in Holland, he produced the body of work that secured his philosophical reputation. Descartes moved to Sweden in 1649, but did not survive his first winter there. Although he wrote extensively, Descartes chose not to publish his earliest efforts at expressing the universal method and deriving its consequences. The Regulae ad directionem ingenii Rules for the Direction of the Mind ) (1628) contain his first full statement of the principles underlying the method and his confidence in the success of their application. In Le Monde The World ) (1634), Descartes clearly espoused a Copernican astronomy, but he withheld the book from the public upon learning of Galileo's condemnation. Descartes finally presented (in French) his rationalist vision of the progress of human knowledge in the Discourse on Method ) (1637). In this

    Immensely influential French philosopher and mathematician, often referred to as "the father of modern philosophy". He proposed a revised form of atomism and so helped pave the way for the expansion of pluralism to include the planetary systems of other stars. In Descartes' cosmological worldview, not only are atoms the fundamental essence of nature but they form vortices, analogous to the solar system, around every star. For religious reasons, Descartes avoided speculating on whether or not these vortices would give rise to inhabited extrasolar worlds. His reluctance to enter the pluralist debate is evident in a letter he wrote to his compatriot, Pierre Chanut: I do not see at all that the mystery of the Incarnation, and all the other advantages that God has brought man obstruct him from having brought forth an infinity of other very great advantages for an infinity of other creatures. And although I do not infer from this that there would be intelligent creatures in the stars or elsewhere, I also do not see that there would be any reason by which to prove that there were not ... Others who followed him, however, and accepted his vortex theory, such as Pierre

    DESCARTES: AN OVERVIEW But in any case, what he came up with in his musings was the idea that the world "out there" was essentially a mechanical device that worked according to fixed rules of motion. Events occurred as the result of impacts among the various bodies that are in constant motion within this "machine." The machine itself is devoid of soul or vitality of its own. It simply responds to the "laws" of motion in a mathematical way. But that left the question of the human soul and willand the divine soul and will. Where do we fit in? Are we merely elements of this mechanical world? Is God merely an element of the mechanical world? To Descartes the answer was clearly a "no" to both questions. But in affirming our own vitalityand God'sDescartes was forced to separate the human soul (and God's) from that soul-less mechanical creation "out there." Fine. But how then were we connected to that worldexcept as removed observers? Where was our ancient sense of unity with all creation? Where in fact did that leave us in relation to Godand to each other? Those questions were never adequately answered. The human soul seemed to be left cut adrift by what was considered a very compelling philosophical statementone which swept powerfully through the philosophical circles of Europe in those days.

    "Except our own thoughts, there is nothing absolutely in our power." The first precept was never to accept a thing as true until I knew it as such without a single doubt. It is not enough to have a good mind. The main thing is to use it well. Everybody thinks himself so well supplied with common sense that even those most difficult to please. . . never desire more of it than they already have.
