This is a video in my new Core Concepts series -- designed to provide students and lifelong learners a brief discussion focused on one main concept from a classic philosophical text and thinker.

This Core Concept video focuses on Rene Descartes' Discourse on Method, looking specifically at the Four Rules of Method Descartes sets out in part 2 of that work.
