Constituting Critique - Kant's Writing as Critical PRAXIS

"This is a study that anyone seriously interested in Kant will have to take into account. Goetschel's writing is intellectually compelling. His interpretation enriches our understanding of Kant, bridging the gap between the literary and systematic aspects of Kant's writing."--Claudia Brodsky Lacour, Princeton University
