Descartes' bones [a skeletal history of the conflict between faith and reason]

""Since 1666, [Rene] Descartes' bones have been fought over, stolen, and sold--by adherents to both religious and scientific doctrine. But why? The answer lies in Descartes' legendary expression, 'I think, therefore I am, ' which prompted the notion that knowledge can be found in facts, not church teachings. With that seemingly innocuous phrase, Descartes presented skepticism to the world--and profoundly changed the course of humankind."--Web page image."@en

"Shorto tells a grand and strange history of the on-going debate between religion and science--seen through the oddly momentous journey of the skull and bones of the great French philosopher Rene Descartes. Shorto shows how this argument first started with Descartes and how his ideas (and bones) have remained central to this theoretical struggle for over 350 years."@en
