knowledge and start again from the original foundation of his knowledge. This foundation was that of sensory perception; Descartes did not believe that the information that we receive through our senses could be trusted, because they are often quite deceptive. Descartes plants the seed of doubt in the senses, and then throughout his meditations shows what he knows to be true. The following essay will describe how he comes to establish the truths at the start of his proof, the consequences of the…
