FORMAT Hardcover LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description In this introductory textbook to Kants Critique of Pure Reason, Jill Vance Buroker explains the role of this first Critique in Kants Critical project and offers a line-by-line reading of the major arguments in the text. She situates Kants views in relation both to his predecessors and to contemporary debates, explaining his Critical philosophy as a response to the failure of rationalism and the challenge of skepticism.
