Reviews'This highly engaging book offers a convincing and original interpretation of what it dubs 'Kant's apperceptive approach to the cognitive faculties,' revealing among other things its surprising implications for the nature of sensibility and intuition. Ranging over Kant's methodology, philosophy of mind, logic, epistemology, and philosophy of mathematics, Smyth brings fresh light to a number of key ideas and distinctions in Kant's mature theoretical philosophy.' James Messina, University of Wisconsin-Madison

SynopsisIn this book Daniel Smyth offers a comprehensive overview of Immanuel Kant's conception of intuition in all its species - divine, receptive, sensible, and human. Kant considers sense perception a paradigm of intuition, yet claims that we can represent infinities in intuition, despite the finitude of sense perception. Smyth examines this heterodox combination of commitments and argues that the various features Kant ascribes to intuition are meant to remedy specific cognitive shortcomings that arise from the discursivity of our intellect Intuition acting as the intellect's cognitive partner to make knowledge possible. He reconstructs Kant's conception of intuition and its role in his philosophy of mind, epistemology, and philosophy of mathematics, and shows that Kant's conception of sensibility is as innovative and revolutionary as his much-debated theory of the understanding., This is the first monograph on Kant's theory of intuition to appear in several decades. It will appeal to scholars of Kant, Early Modern Philosophy, German Idealism and Romanticism, as well as those with a general interest in the theory of knowledge.
