Kant's category of reality is an often overlooked element of his
Critique of Pure Reason. Tal Glezer shows that it nevertheless
belongs at the core of Kant's mature critical philosophy: it
captures an issue that motivated his critical turn, shaped his
theory of causation, and established the role of his philosophy of
science. Glezer's study traces the roots of Kant's category of
reality to early modern debates over the intelligibility of
substantial forms, fueled by the tension between the idea of
non-extended substances and that of extended objects. This tension
influenced Kant's pre-critical work, and eventually inspired his
radical break towards transcendental idealism. Glezer explores the
importance of reality for Kant's conceptions of cause and force,
and sheds new light on his philosophy of physical science,
including gravity. His book will interest scholars of Kant and of
early modern philosophy, as well as historians of scientific ideas.
