Kant's Critique of Judgment has often been interpreted by scholars
as comprising separate treatments of three uneasily connected
topics: beauty, biology, and empirical knowledge. Rachel Zuckert's
book interprets the Critique as a unified argument concerning all
three domains. She argues that on Kant's view, human beings
demonstrate a distinctive cognitive ability in appreciating beauty
and understanding organic life: an ability to anticipate a whole
that we do not completely understand according to preconceived
categories. This ability is necessary, moreover, for human beings
to gain knowledge of nature in its empirical character as it is,
not as we might assume it to be. Her wide-ranging and original
study will be valuable for readers in all areas of Kant's
philosophy.
