Continuum's Guides for the Perplexed are clear, concise and
accessible introductions to thinkers, writers and subjects that
students and readers can find especially challenging. Concentrating
specifically on what it is that makes the subject difficult to
fathom, these books explain and explore key themes and ideas,
guiding the reader towards a thorough understanding of demanding
material. Immanuel Kant's influence and importance are difficult to
exaggerate, his Three Critiques - of Pure Reason, of Practical
Reason and of Judgment - standing as landmark works in the Western
philosophical canon. Anyone interested in or studying philosophy
will encounter Kant and hope to reach a detailed understanding of
his work. Nevertheless, Kant is far from being an easy or
straightforward subject for study. The ideas entailed in his work -
and the connections between them - are complex, and the language in
which they are expressed is frequently opaque. Kant: A Guide for
the Perplexed is the ideal text for anyone finding it difficult to
make headway with this key philosopher. It offers a detailed
account of each of the three Critiques and the relationship between
them. In so doing, it ranges over Kant's epistemology, ethics,
political philosophy, aesthetics and philosophy of religion, and
explores his legacy for German Idealism. Valuably, the book
provides a way through Kant's often impenetrable prose. Written
with students in mind, and tailored to meet their specific needs,
this is a reliable, authoritative and illuminating guide to one of
the central pillars of modern philosophy.
