Description

Gilles Deleuze (1925-1995) was Professor of Philosophy at the University of Paris VII. He is a key figure in poststructuralism and one of the most influential philosophers of the twentieth century. Kant's Critical Philosophy is an outstanding example of Deleuze's work and one of the best short introductions to Kant available. The book lays emphasis on Kant's own view of philosophy. Where most discussions of Kant's work concentrate on the Critique of Pure Reason and the moral philosophy, Deleuze gives a broad overview of the whole of the Critical Philosophy. The book makes an important and welcome contribution to the field of Kant studies.
