Opis

A milestone in Kant scholarship, this interpretation of his critical philosophy makes sense of his notorious 'synthetic judgments a priori'.

Recenzje

'Kant's Theory of Normativity is a fascinating, outstandingly structured and extensive research into the core of Kant's critical philosophy. Its all-encompassing perspective not only casts light on different problematic aspects of Kant's thought but, most importantly, lets the reader realize how these different aspects are all traceable back to reason's attempt to self-legislate its own demands.' Luigi Filieri, Studi Kantiani
