Reviews

One can learn much from this careful study, which I recommend to all students of Kant, but especially to those who have neglected the intellectual context of Kant's developing thought. Journal of the History of Philosophy Dycks book is a formidable historical-contextualist account of Kants Paralogisms, which throws new light on certain aspects of the relation between Kants critique of rational psychology and the particularly Wolffian conception of a rational psychology that, as Dyck shows, takes empirical psychology as its starting point. Dennis Schulting, Studi Kantiani
