In this course lecture/discussion video from my Spring 2013 Introduction to Philosophy class at Marist College, we continue and complete our study of Rene Descartes' Discourse on Method, focusing in particular on all of part 4, some of part 5, and a bit of part 6 of the Discourse. We discuss the famous Cartesian "cogito, ergo sum," Descartes argument for God's existence, his criterion of "clear and distinct" perception for knowledge, the "Cartesian Circle", Mind-Body dualism, and then finish up by discussing how to tell humans apart from robots
