Jonathan Bennett here examines the second half of the Critique of
Pure Reason, the Dialectic, where Kant is concerned with problems
about substance, the nature of the self, the cosmos, freedom and
the existence of God. In this study of the Dialectic in English,
the author aims to make accessible and intelligible to students
this complex and extremely important part of Kant's great work.
There are also extended comparative discussions of related work by
some of the most influential of Kant's predecessors, in particular
Descartes and Leibniz. As in his earlier book, Professor Bennett
offers not passive exegesis but critical assessment; he approaches
Kant from the standpoint of contemporary analytical philosophy,
identifying those arguments and issues of most continuing interest,
and engaging with Kant in discussion of them. His purpose
throughout is 'not history with a special subject-matter, but
philosophy with a special technique'.
