Note: 'AT' is the standard Franco-Latin edition of the complete works of Descartes. Cross references to 'CSM' and 'CSMK', the standard English edition, are given for the reader's convenience, but in a number of the passages quoted I have made occasional minor alterations in phrasing and/or punctuation. In some of the quotations, I have also put certain key words and phrases in italics to draw the reader's attention to their importance for the argument under discussion.
