René Descartes: Father of Modern Philosophy

The Revolutionary Method

Cogito Ergo Sum: "I think, therefore I am" - the foundational insight that consciousness is the one certainty from which all knowledge can be built, anticipating modern consciousness research by 400 years.

Clear and Distinct Ideas: The criterion for truth that influenced centuries of philosophical and scientific development, providing frameworks still used in logical reasoning and mathematical proof.

Contemporary Relevance

Consciousness Studies: Descartes' insights into the nature of consciousness as the foundation of knowledge directly inform contemporary neuroscience and philosophy of mind research.

Scientific Method: His emphasis on systematic doubt and mathematical reasoning established principles that continue to guide scientific inquiry and evidence-based thinking.

Rational Inquiry: The Cartesian method of breaking complex problems into simpler parts remains fundamental to problem-solving in philosophy, science, and technology.
