French mathematician, scientist, and philosopher. He was one of the first to abandon scholastic Aristotelianism, because he formulated the first modern version of mind-body dualism, he promoted the development of a new science grounded in observation and experiment, he has been called the father of modern philosophy. Applying an original system of methodical doubt, he dismissed apparent knowledge derived from authority, the senses, and reason and erected new epistemic foundations on the basis of the intuition that, when he is thinking, he exists.
