1677628Paris: Angot 1677. Hardcover. Fair. Misc. Well-illustrated 1677 second French edition reviewed and corrected from the first René Descartes L'Homme The Man et la Formation du Foetus Formation of the Fetus; and added to this edition Le Monde ou Traité de la Lumiere The World or Treatise on the Light. This copy with the provenance of a noted scientist. A lot to unpack here; might I suggest that you review the Wikipedia articles on the Descartes works ""Treatise on Man"" and ""The World"". In extreme short and therefore a poor description there are three works of Descartes here which blended science and philosophy. The treatise on The Man and The Fetus he didn't feel confident to publish after Galileo's condemnation so they are here published only for the second time corrected from the first edition and they are not finished as Descartes didn't every prepare them for publication. They delve into Descartes theories on the body it's mechanisms and how the psychosomatic affects it. About 50 corresponding illustrations hard to count as some pages may be two plates. The third work again a poor brief description The World was added to this second edition. ""Descartes espoused mechanical philosophy a form of natural philosophy popular in the 17th century. He thought everything physical in the universe to be made of tiny corpuscles of matter. Corpuscularianism is closely related to atomism. The World presents a corpuscularian cosmology in which swirling vortices explain among other phenomena the creation of the Solar System and the circular motion of planets around the Sun. The World rests on the heliocentric view first explicated in Western Europe by Copernicus. Descartes delayed the book's release upon news of the Roman Inquisition's conviction of Galileo for ""suspicion of heresy"" and sentencing to house arrest. Descartes discussed his work on the book and his decision not to release it in letters with another philosopher Marin Mersenne.""
