About this book

Kant set out to settle whether metaphysics could ever be a science, and the answer reshaped Western thought. He asks how the mind can know anything before experience, and argues that space, time, and the categories of understanding are not features of the world but structures the mind imposes on it. From this comes his famous claim that we know appearances, never things as they are in themselves. Dense and demanding, the book dismantles both the rationalists who trusted pure reason and the empiricists who trusted only the senses, then rebuilds knowledge on new ground. First published in 1781, it remains one of the most important and difficult works in all of philosophy. Free to download as a PDF or EPUB.

About the author

Immanuel Kant

Kant spent his entire life in Königsberg, never travelled more than about a hundred miles from it, and kept a routine so regular that neighbours were said to set their clocks by his afternoon walk.
