{"product_id":"kants-theory-of-natural-science-peter-plaass-9780792327509","title":"Kant's Theory of Natural Science","description":"Plaass's treatise stood at the beginning of a renewed wave of scholarship regarding Kant's \u003cem\u003eMetaphysical Foundations of Natural\u003c\/em\u003e \u003cem\u003eScience (MF)\u003c\/em\u003e. Plaass argues that the \u003cem\u003eMF\u003c\/em\u003e represents an integral step in Kant's development between the two editions of the \u003cem\u003eCritique of\u003c\/em\u003e \u003cem\u003ePure Reason\u003c\/em\u003e. The \u003cem\u003eMF\u003c\/em\u003e repeats the  Copernican turn', using the conditions of subjectivity to derive the metaphysical determinations of  matter' as the object of natural science with the new method called  metaphysical construction', which simultaneously grounds the mathematizability of physics. The translators provide background and analysis of Plaass's work, extend it to include the body of the \u003cem\u003eMF\u003c\/em\u003e and offer a variation on the analysis of the relationship between mathematics and metaphysics in the \u003cem\u003eMF\u003c\/em\u003e. They discuss its relevance for contemporary paradigm-dependency approaches to the philosophy of science and for philosophical hermeneutics. The book will be of interest to Kant specialists as well as to students of the philosophy of science in general. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter Plaass\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0792327500\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780792327509\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Springer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/31\/1994\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 367\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.51lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.88d","brand":"Peter Plaass","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48517421203711,"sku":"9780792327509","price":169.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e2530e14-65e1-42f0-a9ab-57cdce0202b2.jpg?v=1778731854","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/kants-theory-of-natural-science-peter-plaass-9780792327509","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
