The Paradox of Subjectivity - The Self in the Transcendental Tradition (Hardcover)

Both contemporary philosophers since Heidegger and post-modern philosophers have largely rejected modernist philosophy, particularly that of Kant and Husserl, because they see it as committed to an untenably metaphysical view of the self. This book is a review of these attacks and a defence of the concepts of self and subjectivity. Carr reviews and explains the general context and influence of Heidegger's critique of Kant and Husserl. He then presents a more accurate reading of Kant and Husserl, which he uses as a starting-point for presenting a sketch of his own transcendental account of the self.
