Reviews

""Mayz Vallenilla's Kant and the Problem of Nothingness offers the most thorough and insightful treatments of the intriguing Table of Nothingness in the Critique of Pure Reason. Kant´s fourfold division in the Table is superbly reconstructed by Mayz Vallenilla in this significant book of Latin American philosophical scholarship. The book puts into question, in a subtle and acute way, received ideas concerning temporality, experience and categorial thinking. It certainly constitutes a nice and refreshing counterpart to some of Heidegger´s most cherished thoughts about the ontology of time. Addison Ellis has done a superb philosophical translation from the Spanish, with detailed references to the original sources in German, together with aptly placed editorial notes explaining the historic and systematic context of the work."" --Efraín Lazos, Professor of Philosophy, The National Autonomous University of Mexico, Mexico
