The French thinker <br /> who declared &quot;Cogito, ergo sum&quot; (&quot;I think, therefore I am&quot;) has been called the <br /> founder of modern philosophy and mathematics. But Descartes also had a <br /> mysterious, mystical side. Many scholars believe that he was probably a member <br /> of the occult brotherhood of the Rosicrucians. According to Amir D. Aczel, the <br /> author of Fermat's Last Theorem, Descartes inscribed his secrets in a coded <br /> notebook. After his death, the notebook apparently vanished, but the great <br /> mathematician Gottfried Leibniz discovered the manuscript in the possession of <br /> Descartes's loyal friend Claude Clerselier. In Descartes's Secret Notebook, <br /> Aczel tells the story of its recovery and its loss. <br /> <br /> Table Of Contents<br /> <br /> Aknowledgments tX<br /> Introduction 1<br /> Prologue: Libniz sSearch in Paris 10<br /> 1: The gardens efTouraine 17<br /> 2: Jesuit Mathematics and the Pleasures if the Caprital 27<br /> 3: The Dutch Puzzle 41<br /> 4: Three Dreams in an Oven by the Danube 55<br /> 5: The Athenians Are Vexed by a Persistent Ancient Plague 64<br /> 6: The Meeting with Faulhaber and the Battle if Prague 72<br /> 7: The Brotherhood 82<br /> 8: Swords at Sea and a Meeting in the Marais 92<br /> 9: Descartes and the Rosicrucians 101<br /> 10: Italian Creations 113<br /> 11: A Duel at Orleans, and the Siege if La Rochelle 122<br /> 12: The More to Holland and the Ghost if Galileo 131<br /> 13: A 5ecret Affiir 145<br /> 14: Descartes' Philosophy and the Discourse on the Method 150<br /> 15: Descartes Understands the Ancient 'Delian Mystery 161<br /> 16: Princess Elizaheth 167<br /> 17: The Intrigues Utrecht 174<br /> 18: The Call of the Queen 180<br /> 19: The Mysterious Death if 'Descartes 19J<br /> 20: Leihniz's Quest For 'Descartes' 5ecret 206<br /> 21: Leibniz Breaks Descartes' Code and 5olves the Mystery 111<br /> A Twellty-First-Century Epilogue 236<br /> Notes 143<br /> Biliography 158<br /> Illustration Credits 265<br /> Index 266<br /> <br /> Product Details<br /> <br /> * ISBN: 0767920333<br /> * ISBN-13: 9780767920339<br /> * Format: Hardcover, 273pp<br /> * Publisher: Broadway Books<br /> * Pub.
