Meditations on First Philosophy

The new version of Cress''s translation of Descartes''s Meditations has attained an unusually high degree of readability . . . and at the same time, of fidelity to the original.--Roger Ariew, University of South Florida, and Marjorie Grene (1910-2009), Virginia Polytechnic Institute

Descartes''s Meditations on First Philosophy, the fundamental and originating work of the modern era in Western philosophy, is presented here in Donald Cress''s completely revised edition of his well-established translation, bringing this version even closer to Descartes''s original, while maintaining its clear and accessible style.
