Thinking with Objects offers a fresh view of the transformation that took place in mechanics during the 17th century. By giving center stage to objects -- levers, inclined planes, beams, pendulums, springs, and falling and projected bodies -- Domenico Bertoloni Meli provides a unique and comprehensive portrayal of mechanics as practitioners understood it at the time. Bertoloni Meli reexamines such major texts as Galileo's Dialogues Concerning Two New Sciences, Descartes' Principles of Philosophy, and Newton's Principia, and in them finds a reliance on objects that has escaped proper understanding. From Pappus of Alexandria to Guidobaldo dal Monte, Bertoloni Meli sees significant developments in the history of mechanical experimentation, all of them crucial for understanding Galileo. Bertoloni Meli uses similarities and tensions between dal Monte and Galileo as a springboard for exploring the revolutionary nature of seventeenth-century mechanics. Examining objects helps us appreciate the shift from the study to the practice of mechanics and challenges artificial dichotomies among practical and conceptual pursuits, mathematics, and experiment.

Dans le second livre de son manuel de philosophie, les Principia Philosophiae (1644), Descartes expose les fondements métaphysiques de la connaissance des corps et les règles universelles de leurs mouvements. Il énonce ainsi le principe d'inertie et propose la loi de la conservation de la quantité de mouvement. L'inexactitude de presque toutes les règles du choc qu'il en déduit est moins importante que leur existence même : c'est un domaine entier de la connaissance naaturelle qui se trouve ainsi pour la première fois soumis à la légalité et à la rationalité. Ainsi apparaît une physique générale, dont les principes sont identifiés à ceux de la mathesis. Il fallait commenter cette physique, en montrant comment elle sort de ses racines métaphysiques et prépare l'étude des corps célestes et terrestres - étude qui réclame pour s'accomplir une information empirique et la formation de l'hypothèse de la fluidité des cieux. Le seul objet de cet ouvrage est l'analyse des dispositifs cartésiens de conceptualisation de la substance étendue sous le mode du mouvement, dans l'examen des différents niveaux de constitution des corps. Il s'agit donc d'une introduction à la mécanique cartésienne.
