Meditations on First Philosophy: With Selections from the Objections and Replies by René DescartesMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
A good edition of the Meditations and the Objections. The Objections have been organized by topic, which was helpful as it allowed me easier comparison of the complaints as well as consider the Replies. The footnotes provide some interesting notes on the translation. I can't comment too heavily on how well it captures the original because I have not read and cannot read the original (which is why I used a translation).
A very important text, historically speaking. A bit of a challenge to wrap around the logic of all the arguments, but still quite interesting from a literary perspective.
