Kant's groundbreaking philosophical treatise concerning the
processes of reason is presented here, complete with all appendices
and notes. Viewed by scholars of philosophy as one of the landmark
texts of the Enlightenment era, The Critique of Pure Reason is
often a primary text in higher educational courses concerning
philosophy. First published in 1781 and revised in 1787, this book
is generally agreed to be the masterwork of Immanuel Kant for its
embracing scope, and the gargantuan influence it has wrought upon
philosophers. In composing his most famous critique, Kant consulted
the works of contemporary philosophers such as John Locke and David
Hume. Their work, which discusses the extent to which human beings
can perceive and utilise knowledge, forms the grounding for many of
Kant's arguments. This edition of The Critique of Pure Reason
contains the original appendices and is presented in a format ideal
for students, scholars and enthusiasts of philosophy.
This textbook is suitable for a course in advanced calculus that
promotes active learning through problem solving. It can be used as
a base for a Moore method or inquiry based class, or as a guide in
a traditional classroom setting where lectures are organized around
the presentation of problems and solutions. This book is
appropriate for any student who has taken (or is concurrently
taking) an introductory course in calculus. The book includes
sixteen appendices that review some indispensable prerequisites on
techniques of proof writing with special attention to the notation
used the course.
