Descartes.—Among the leading men who accepted Harvey's theory, one of the first was René Descartes (1596–1650). Well might this thinker welcome it, for it was a most important contribution to the imposing philosophic fabric for which he was industriously collecting materials. Descartes, apart from his philosophical speculations, is an interesting character, being a Frenchman of noble birth who was educated by the Jesuits, saw something of contemporary life in Paris, served as a military officer in Holland and Germany, and made some original discoveries in mathematics.

And it very often solves the mystery of the universe by expressing all its contents in mathematical terms. Such, at least, was Descartes' method.
