2010 Descartes and Hume: Piece of Wax In Descartes’ “Meditation II‚” he begins his look into sensory perceptions with a very in-depth look into a plain piece of wax. He explains that there is a very distinct piece of wax‚ perhaps from a fresh honeycomb. All the physical attributes of this wax can be observed; feel‚ temperature‚ color‚ taste‚ smell‚ odor; these are the things we can tell through our senses.
