The Science of the Individual: Leibniz’s Ontology of Individual Substance
Stefano Di Bella
Le fantôme de Descartes
Pierre Guenancia. Esprit (2012) 3–4:150–164. “Trop souvent, on considère l’histoire de la philosophie comme quelque chose de scolaire, qui n’éclaire pas la pensée. Or il en va tout autrement, puisqu’elle nous permet précisément de mieux contrer certains discours du monde contemporain, et d’échapper à l’enfermement du présent. Comme le démontre l’exemple de la théorie du dualisme cartésien, qui permet de critiquer de manière féconde l’approche réductrice des sciences cognitives.”
