The course was originally developed for students at Marist College. In this portion of the class, we are reading, examining, and discussing portions of Rene Descartes' work, the Discourse on Method

This video discusses some of the implications of Descartes' mind-body distinction brought out in part 5 of the Discourse -- particularly the difference between human beings, machines, and animals.

The course itself is intended to introduce students without a background in philosophy to some of the key texts, authors, perspectives, and concepts of the History of Ideas, with a particular focus upon human nature, culture and society, and the reality underlying and encompassing human beings and their experiences.
