Abstract

The article explores the potential of Descartes' view of matter in the light of modern discussions. The author compares the key theses of the «Principia Philosophiae» about the physical picture of the world with the concept of «holomovement» of the physicist David Bohm, noting the affinity of the conclusion about the synergistic unity of space, time and matter with a number of Cartesian conclusions.
