Rene Descartes’ MEDITATIONS ON FIRST PHILOSOPHY, Meditation 1

Rene Descartes' classic philosophical work, Meditations on First Philosophy, is a participative exercise in thinking. Join one of history's great philosophical minds in considering the nature of the world and how we think about it.

In Meditation 1, Descartes begins to systematically doubt everything that can be doubted, revealing how very little, in fact, we know. He is searching, he says, for ONE thing that is certain, that he can build a systematic structure upon. Descartes' systematic skepticism can teach our own age about faith; that it is a universal in human experience.
