Description

Karl Ameriks here collects his most important essays to provide a uniquely detailed and up-to-date analysis of Kant's main arguments in all three major areas of his work: theoretical philosophy (Critique of Pure Reason ), practical philosophy (Critique of Practical Reason ), and aesthetics (Critique of Judgment ). Guiding the volume is Ameriks's belief that one cannot properly understand any one of these Critiques except in the context of the other two. The essays can be read individually, but read together they offer a comprehensive guide to the main themes of the most influential of all modern philosophical systems.

Reviews

"For any student of Kant's critical philosophy, this work merits serious, attentive reading. Ameriks provides here a perhaps unequaled orientation to the positions and approaches in contemporary Kant scholarship both Anglo-American and German (a daunting body of work and thus an impressive accomplishment itself). ... Ameriks provides an invaluable service to Kant scholarship...and to all readers of Kant in elaborating and powerfully defending his controversial-traditionalist interpretation."--Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews
