{"product_id":"9780792354734","title":"Descartes on the Human Soul: Philosophy and the Demands of Christian Doctrine","description":"\u003ch1\u003eDescartes on the Human Soul: Philosophy and the Demands of Christian Doctrine\u003c\/h1\u003e \u003ch2\u003eFowler, C.F.\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe author's aim of providing an understanding of the  development, content and presentation of two aspects of Descartes'  philosophy of the human soul - immortality and body-soul  union - has been achieved and executed with rigour, scholarship  and philosophical acuity. Fowler combines close textual analysis with  a consideration of the philosophical arguments and the theological  background against which these arguments were developed. This  contextual approach enables him to provide new insights into the  nature of Descartes' philosophy, and indeed of early modern philosophy  more generally. Despite the massive scholarly documentation, this  finely structured and clearly written study is eminently readable. The  work is a significant contribution to the world of Cartesian  scholarship which professors and graduate students of Descartes, as  well as the world's libraries, must have.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 1998-12-31\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780792354734\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-94-011-4804-7\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235.0cm x155.0cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 442.0\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Netherlands","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45378886205580,"sku":"9780792354734","price":161.1,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780792354734.jpg?v=1765470673","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9780792354734","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
