""In his great work, Jean-Luc Marion peels back the Cartesian masks to reveal an authentic Descartes from beneath the layers of interpretations and commentaries by Cartesians and anti-Cartesians, also discussing those, such as Montaigne and Hobbes, whose work constrained him or set up false expectations for his philosophy. This is a marvelous enterprise which initiates Marion's renewed efforts to read, reread, and rethink the Cartesian corpus from end to end."" --Roger Ariew, Distinguished University Professor, University of South Florida ""Once again, Marion unmasks Descartes with charming irreverence, reading him alongside his near contemporaries--Montaigne, Hobbes, and Spinoza--and ours. And once again, he shows us something fresh and new in these texts."" --Daniel Garber, A. Watson J. Armour III University Professor, Princeton University
