Reviews for Kant and the Early Moderns
"This small collection of essays is distinguished by the caliber of its contributors and by the exceptional promise of the discussion that it only begins ... This is an exceptionally productive exercise that allows readers not only to see these early modern figures in their own light, but also to appreciate what is truly novel about Kant's interpretation of them."
