Used -- but great condition

I bought this book for my philosophy class. I always buy books used if I can due to cost. This book was in Great condition! If not for the occasional note, I never would have know it was used.

Analytic of the Critique

This text is essentially a concise summary of the work accomplished by Kant in his Critique of Pure Reason, in which the great thinker answers the following: 1)How is pure mathematics possible? 2) How is pure natural science possible? 3)How is metaphysics in general possible? 4) How is metaphysics as a science possible? These are of course the most crucial topics in all transcendental thought, and this volume is possibly the most successful microcosm of Kant's thought. However, for all real students of Kant, the Critique must be read in its entirety.

A bit of balance, please!

Since the previous reviewer spent so much time loathing their own inability to understand Kant's writings, I believe a higher rating is in order. From one who CAN understand at least the Prolegomena, I recommend it wholeheartedly to the philosopher who wishes to understand an alternative to Hume and other skeptics.
