The book is divided into chapters, but several themes run across
them. This is, in fact, the reason for writing a book rather than a
number of independent articles; for it appears that several moments
of Kant's work are characterized by similar problems, and
consequently we might be unable to see the impact of these on a
more 1 i mi ted canvas. But further, and perhaps no less
importantly, the shared problems are likely to be indicative of the
nature of the whole area under discussion. Given this, to
concentrate our attention on them should provide clarification not
accessible in any other way. It is one of the objects of the
present book to obtai n thi s clarification, and to apply it to the
area itself, rather than merely to utilize the results in Kantian
exegesis and elucidation. Thus the aim is not predominantly
historical. Of the various themes, the theme of Space and Time
turns out to be of prime importance to the whole picture presented,
and within it, the theme of space. This is not perhaps surprising,
for Kant's central task is to provide for objectivity; i. e. , to
explain how a "subjective" stream of perceptions can amount to a
perception of the world in which there are both subjective and
objective moments.
