Cartesian Psychophysics and the Whole Nature of Man: On Descartes’s Passions of the Soul
Richard F. Hassing
This book describes Descartes's The Passions of the Soul as a foundational work of the Enlightenment, a precursor of later notions of the historicity of the human, and the first psychology of modern type: to understand and heal ourselves, we look not out at the world in immediate relation to it, but inward, at the self, its brain, and its history.
