This book assesses and defends Kant's Critical epistemology, and
the rich yet neglected resources it provides for understanding and
resolving fundamental issues regarding human experience, perceptual
judgment, empirical knowledge and cognitive sciences. Kenneth
Westphal first examines Kant's methods and strategies for examining
human sensory-perceptual experience, and then examines Kant's
central, proper, and subtle attention to judgment, and so to the
humanly possible valid use of concepts and principles to judge
particulars we confront. This provides a comprehensive account of
Kant's anti-Cartesianism, the integrity of his three principles of
causal judgment, and Kant's account of disciminatory
perceptual-motor behaviour, including both sensory reafference and
perceptual affordances. Westphal then defends the significance of
Kant's subtle and illuminating account of causal judgment for three
main philosophical domains: history and philosophy of science,
theory of action and human freedom, and philosophy of mind. Kant's
Critical Epistemology will appeal to researchers and advanced
students interested in Kant and the relations of his thought to
contemporary philosophical debates and to the sciences of the mind.
