- Summary:
- Ian Proops illuminates the idea of 'critique', the 'fiery test' which was central to Kant's philosophical project. He shows how Kant conceived it as a process for separating good metaphysics from bad, and explores what the positive results of this process were in one of the most famous sections of his work, the 'Transcendental Dialectic'.
