Discours de la methode
81. This work (also appearing in the Mathematics section as Herald 107b)
was Descartes' first published treatise and discussed his ideas on the proper
methods for doing science. As examples he appended separate works on optics,
meteorology, and geometry. This is the book where he first stated, "je pense,
donc je suis:" "I think, therefore, I am."
