"This rangy and precise book deserves to be read even by those historians who think they are bored with Descartes. While offering surprising and detailed readings of bewildering texts like the Description of the Human Body, Des Chene constructs a powerful, sad narrative of the Cartesian disenchantment of the body. Along the way he also delivers provocative views on topics as various as teleology, the role of illustrations in the history of mechanism, theories of the sexual differentiation of the foetus, and problems of simulation in scientific method."-Paula Gould, Chester, British Journal for the History of Science, June 2003, "Des Chene successfully shows that these philosophers were fully aware of the problems in Aristotle's notion of the soul. He also shows that the questions fundamental to the Aristotelian psychology were not so much answered by Descartes and his followers as mooted."--Peter Lautner, Bryn Mawr Review, 06/04/01, "This rangy and precise book deserves to be read even by those historians who think they are bored with Descartes.

Physiologia is one of the first books to provide an accessible and comprehensive guide to that tradition in natural philosophy.

    A couple items arrived broken; the seller replaced them promptly. I had an additional concern and the seller addressed it as well. He was thoughtful, positive, and overall very helpful. I would purchase from him again.
