Kant had some okay ideas -- some -- but he was such a terrible writer that they almost just went to waste entirely. ( )this is the abrigded version of pure reason. as said in my review of groundwork of the metaphysics of morals kant is a hard read but worth while read The Critique of Pure Reason for Dummies, Kant's popularization of his own famously indecipherable work of metaphysics is itself at the border of decipherability, but only just, and it will reward those with some background in philosophy who are willing to make the slog. I'm not one—I gave up after the first couple of chapters—but I am convinced that it would be possible to make it all the way through. no reviews | add a review
Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0521575427, Paperback)Kant is the central figure of modern philosophy. He sought to rebuild philosophy from the ground up, and he succeeded in permanently changing its problems and methods. This new translation of the Prolegomena, which is the best introduction to his philosophy, presents his thought clearly by paying careful attention to his original language. Also included are selections from the Critique of Pure Reason, which fill out and explicate some of Kant's central arguments, and in which Kant himself explains his special terminology. The volume is completed by a historical and philosophical introduction, explanatory notes, a chronology and a guide to further reading.(retrieved from Amazon Fri, 24 Apr 2009 07:58:15 -0400) The first test round has been closed.
