Readership: Scholars and students of philosophy.
Henry E. Allison, University of California, San Diego, and Boston University (Emeritus)
Henry E. Allison is Emeritus Professor of the University of California, San Diego, and Boston University. He is the author of many books, including Custom and Reason in Hume (OUP, 2008), and over seventy-five scholarly articles and reviews.
"Allison's work is typically clear, thoughtful, and based upon careful reading and contemplation of both Kant's words and his deep intentions. No matter ones particular interests in Kant, this volume will serve as a welcome guide and deserves careful attention by anyone seriously interested in Kant in particular and the history of philosophy in general." - Andrew Israelsen, Bibliographia
