Defending Descartes in Brandenburg-Prussia: The University of Frankfurt an der Oder in the Seventeenth Century, written by Pietro Daniel Omodeo.

Pietro Daniel Omodeo aims to examine a variety of Cartesian philosophers active at the University of Frankfurt an der Oder, with a focus on two figures: Johannes Placentinus (1630-1683) and Tobias Andreae (1633-1685). This book addresses the reception of Descartes's philosophy in Brandenburg-Prussia, a context largely neglected by modern scholarship on Descartes and Cartesianism. [Extracted from the article]
