This is a book about Kant's views on causality as understood in
their proper historical context. Specifically, Eric Watkins argues
that a grasp of Leibnizian and anti-Leibnizian thought in
eighteenth-century Germany helps one to see how the critical Kant
argued for causal principles that have both metaphysical and
epistemological elements. On this reading Kant's model of causality
does not consist of events, but rather of substances endowed with
causal powers that are exercised according to their natures and
circumstances. This innovative conception of Kant's view of
causality casts a light on Kant's philosophical beliefs in general,
such as his account of temporality, his explanation of the
reconciliation of freedom and determinism, and his response to the
skeptical arguments of Hume.
