"In this remarkable exposition, Paton succeeds in meticulously deconstructing the text of the Critique of Pure Reason. Unlike previous commentators on Kant (Kemp Smith, Adickes & Vaihinger), who viewed the Critique as an inconsistent & disunified patchwork, Paton demonstrates its unity, coherence & clarity. The result is a text that encourages not only Kantian studies but also the reappraisal of Kant's standpoint for contemporary philosophy." Scarce to find as a set.. First Edition. Hardcover.
