Journal of Analytical Psychology, 2008
Abstract: René Descartes is often regarded as the ‘father of modern philosophy’. He was a key figure in instigating the scientific revolution that has been so influential in shaping our modern world. He has been revered and reviled in almost equal measure for this role; on the one hand seen as liberating science from religion, on the other as ...

Hospital Practice, 1990
Abstract It Is Four O’Clock in the morning, and I am lying in bed in the Hotel Continental in Yokohama. A number of thoughts are unfolding, doubtless related to jet lag, surviving the feared puffer fish at a delicious dinner last night, and visiting Daibutsu, a very large Buddha statue, at Kamakura.

In the last twenty or so years, there has been a trend, increasingly viable especially in the Anglophone world, in the study of Descartes towards regarding his intellectual milieu as a source of significant input for the understanding of his philosophical work. In this note, I wish to take account of one significant contribution to this trend, which is

Descartes Embodied Psychology: Descartes or Damasios Error?
Journal of the History of the Neurosciences, 2001Damasio (1994) claims that Descartes imagined thinking as an activity separate from the body, and that the effort to understand the mind in general biological terms was retarded as a consequence of Descartes' dualism. These claims do not hold; they are "Damasio's error". Descartes never considered what we today call thinking or cognition without taking
