Description
Man a Machine (French: L'homme Machine) is a work of materialist philosophy by the 18th-century French physician and philosopher Julien Offray de La Mettrie, first published in 1748. In this work, La Mettrie extends Descartes' argument that animals were mere automatons or machines to human beings, denying the existence of the soul as a substance separate from matter.
First Sentence
It is not enough for a wise man to study nature and truth; he should dare state truth for the benefit of the few who are willing and able to think.
