Offsetting a study of Kant's theory of cognition with a mixture of
intellectual history and biography, Kant's Organicism offers
readers an accessible portrait of Kant's scientific milieu in order
to show that his standing interests in natural history and its
questions regarding organic generation were critical for the
development of his theoretical philosophy. By reading Kant's
theoretical work in light of his connection to the life sciences -
especially his reflections on the epigenetic theory of formation
and genesis - Jennifer Mensch provides a new understanding of much
that has been otherwise obscure or misunderstood in it.
"Epigenesis"- a term increasingly used in the late eighteenth
century to describe an organic, nonmechanical view of nature's
generative capacities - attracted Kant as a model for understanding
the origin of reason itself. Mensch shows how this model allowed
Kant to conceive of cognition as a self-generated event and thus to
approach the history of human reason as if it were an organic
species with a natural history of its own. She uncovers Kant's
commitment to the model offered by epigenesis in his first major
theoretical work, the Critique of Pure Reason, and demonstrates how
it informed his concept of the organic, generative role given to
the faculty of reason within his system as a whole. In doing so,
she offers a fresh approach to Kant's famed first Critique and a
new understanding of his epistemological theory.
Accountancy provides a significant role and impact on the public
and private sectors through its various disciplines and
specialties. Trust in human and technological interactions is a
primary objective of public accounting. Accountancy provides the
strategic capability to access and interpret organizational
performance. Therefore, because of its impactful role, it is
important to understand and project how accountancy will change as
a profession. As accountancy continuously evolves, it mandates
agility among stakeholders, particularly those in education and the
professions. The Past, Present, and Future of Accountancy Education
and Professions broadly covers the ways accountancy will require
new roles and knowledge for its constituents in the emerging
future. The book explores how technological, educational,
professional, and societal changes will transform accountancy.
Covering topics such as business demands, professional
competencies, and student success, this premier reference source is
an excellent resource for financial reporters, financial advisors,
auditors, accountants, administrators and educators of both K-12
and higher education, students of higher education, pre-service
teachers, librarians, researchers, and academicians.
