Second collected edition of Descartes groundbreaking works in philosophy and the history of science which were also sold separately or under a general title following the original 1644 Elzevir edition. The Principia Philosophiae was the first comprehensive study of the nature of the universe as well as an epochal work in the history of science where Descartes first developed his vortex theory arguing that the Earth was immobile and at rest while the entire vortex circled the sun. This served as Descartes’ attempt to reconcile Copernican heliocentric astronomy with traditional theology and also included the first scientific discussion of magnetism as well as investigations into heat light gravity and electricity. This second Latin edition of Specimina philosophiae was first published anonymously in 1637 in Leiden and then revised later by Descartes. This work includes his contributions on mathematics as well as significant studies of optics light colour and meteors. In De Methodo his summary of cardiovascular physiology significantly influenced the study of medicine in the 17th-Century while his De Dioptrice summarized his basis for the detailed study of sensation image formation and visual perception.

Together these three books form the collected principal works of René Descartes 1596-1650 arguably the most influential philosopher of early modern Europe. Louis Elzevier first published Descartess Principia philosopiae in 1644. It contains the philosopher's thoughts on the structure of the universe including his highly influential vortex theory illustrated with woodcuts after drawings by Franciscus van Schooten. Although Descartes wrote the Principia in Latin he had earlier written two books in French that he now revised and corrected for publication in Latin by Louis Elzevier matching the format and layout of the Principia so that they could be issued together. They originally appeared in French as Discourse de la methode pour bien conduire sa raison 1637 and Les passions de lame 1649. Elzevier published the Latin edition of the Discourse . with the present title Specimina . together with the first edition of the Principia in 1644. In 1650 he published new editions of both as well as the first Latin edition of the French Passion . under the present title Passiones animae. Later in 1650 he published new editions of all three works the present set but their layout and typography matches the earlier 1650 4to editions so closely that the classic bibliographies including Willems Rahir and Berghman do not distinguish them. Descartes lived in Leiden from 1630 when he registered at the university to a few months before his death a time when the Dutch Republic was world famous or in less tolerant circles infamous for its lack of censorship and the high quality of its printing. His controversial works benefitted from both.With the armorial bookplate of Alexander Thomson of Banchory Scotland active 1866. In good condition.
