دانلود کتاب Making Sense of Kant's “Critique of Pure Reason”: A Philosophical Introduction

Tackling Kant’s seminal enlightenment text, Critique of Pure Reason, remains key for every student of modern philosophy. Michael Pendlebury distils his breadth of experience teaching Kant’s first Critique to provide a short, accessible introduction that reveals its enduring inspirations, challenges and ideas to thinkers grappling with contemporary philosophical issues. Clarifying and making sense of Kant’s account of perception, cognition, space, time, substance, causation, actuality, objectivity, and the presuppositions and limits of human knowledge makes Critique of Pure Reason digestible for all students, including those approaching it for the first time.
Making Sense of Kant’s Critique of Pure Reason concentrates on key portions of the text that are essential to a basic understanding of Kant’s project, providing an introduction that situates his ideas as solutions to philosophical problems. The book offers a sympathetic account of Kant’s theory of a priori cognition alongside its application for readers new to Kantian philosophy, and uses select quotations from the original text to foreground Kant’s Critique independent of subsequent debates and interpretations. Pendlebury makes sense of Kant’s own views and arguments, creating a stimulating read that provides a useful starting point for further study.
