Review(s) from previous edition"interesting and provocative ... well worth reading. If there is a tendency to oversimplify Kant's role in shaping early analytic philosophy, i.e. to see Kant as the proponent of views that the analysts, with ample justification, reacted against, and which they happily succeeded in demolishing once and for all, Hanna's book will serve as a helpful corrective. - Journal of the History of Philosophy
