Kant's Prolegomena to Any Future Metaphysics (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781162773940)

Kant's Prolegomena to Any Future Metaphysics is a philosophical work by Immanuel Kant. The book serves as a brief introduction to his critical philosophy, which he presents as a response to the skepticism of his time. Kant seeks to establish the possibility of metaphysics as a legitimate field of inquiry, while also addressing the limitations of human knowledge and the nature of reality. He argues that the human mind is limited in its ability to know the world as it truly is, but that certain fundamental concepts, such as space and time, are necessary for any experience of the world. The Prolegomena also includes Kant's famous distinction between analytic and synthetic judgments, and his critique of the traditional arguments for the existence of God. Overall, the book is a concise and accessible overview of Kant's philosophy, and an important work in the history of Western thought.1912. Based on the 1902 translation of Prolegomena by Carus. With an essay on Kant�������s philosophy, and other supplementary material for the study of Kant. Kant�������s Prolegomena, although a small book, is indubitably the most important of his writings.
