• Offers new and original readings of the central arguments in both the Transcendental Aesthetic and the Transcendental Analytic.
  
• Appraises the success and failure of Kant's project in the Critique.

Reviews
"Kant's Critique of Pure Reason is the watershed of modern philosophy. Anthony Savile's approach to the central argument of this great work is as brilliant as it is concise. It makes Kant truly accessible to the student and general reader while offering much food for thought for the seasoned professional." Paul D Guyer, Professor of Philosophy & Florence R.C. Murray Professor, University of Pennsylvania

"Anthony Savile's account of the Aesthetic and Analytic, elegantly written with a light touch, is a valuable addition to the literature on the Critique of Pure Reason. It provides a careful, sympathetic, and concise interpretation of transcendental idealism which students at all levels will find both instructive and enjoyable to read." Graham Bird, Manchester University
