Since the 1780s, Western philosophy has been largely under the
spell of Immanuel Kant's transcendental philosophy. In this book,
Maurizio Ferraris offers a number of important criticisms of Kant
in a book of two parts, written 21 years apart. The first part of
the book, 'Observation', originally published in 2001, lays the
foundations of Ferraris' New Realism, foreshadowing the realist
turn that has become characteristic of 21st century philosophy. The
second part, 'Speculation', written in 2021, outlines a complete
metaphysical theory of realism. What ties both parts of the book
together is the the notion of hysteresis, the ability of effects to
survive even when their causes have ceased to exist.
