In this first book-length treatment of Descartes’ important and influential natural philosophy, Daniel Garber is principally concerned with Descartes’ accounts of matter and motion—the joint between Descartes’ philosophical and scientific interests. These accounts constitute the point at which the metaphysical doctrines on God, the soul, and body, developed in writings like the Meditations, give rise to physical conclusions regarding atoms, vacua, and the laws that matter in motion must obey.
