Synopsis:

Of all major philosophical works, Kant's Critique of Pure Reason is one of the most rewarding, yet one of the most difficult. Norman Kemp Smith's Commentary elucidates not only textual questions and minor issues, but also the central problems which arise, he contends, from the conflicting tendencies of Kant's own thinking. This standard work is reissued to meet a continuing demand.

About the Author: NORMAN KEMP SMITH was born in Dundee in 1872 and died in Edinburgh in 1958. Between 1919 and 1945 he was Professor of Logic and Metaphysics at the University of Edinburgh. Among his books are New Studies in the Philosophy of Descartes, The Credibility of Divine Existence and his translation of Kant's Critique of Pure Reason.

SEBASTIAN GARDNER is lecturer in Philosophy at UCL. He is the Reviews Editor of the European Journal of Philosophy and the author of Fichte, Schelling and Early German Idealism, Kant and the 'Critique of Pure Reason' and Irrationality and the Philosophy of Psychoanalysis.
