Kant's Inferentialism (eBook, PDF)

The Case Against Hume

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This book examines Kant's Critique of Pure Reason as presenting a sophisticated inferentialist theory of mental representation and places the work in its proper historical and philosophical context as a response to Hume's Treatise of Human Nature. Landy argues that Hume's theory of mental representation is far more radical than previously taken to believe, and in this way serves as the strongest possible foil to Kant.
