Reviews

Renowned philosopher and Kant scholar Robert Hanna's most recent book Cognition, Content, and the A Prior: A Study in the Philosophy of Mind and Knowledge is probably his most ambitious to date. It's also an exhilarating read: an exemplarily lucid, fast-paced philosophical thriller replete with pithy nuggets of philosophical substance and in addition, as the allspice added to the main ingredient, jesting but no less scathing in-house attacks on the elementary dogmas set in stone and religiously patrolled by the vanguard of analytical philosophy ... Hanna's book should be read by any philosopher, in particular, self-declared analytic philosophers, worth their salt, especially as there are some substantial things about a core aspect of philosophy, certainly analytic philosophy, at stake that Hanna discusses in this important, somewhat unorthodox book * Dennis Schulting, Critique *
