What is Kant's Theory of Natural Science Translation, Analytic Introduction and Commentary by Alfred E. and Maria G. Miller With an Introductory Essay by Carl Friedrich von Weizsäcker about?
Plaass's treatise stood at the beginning of a renewed wave of scholarship regarding Kant's __Metaphysical Foundations of Natural____Science (MF)__. Plaass argues that the __MF__ represents an integral step in Kant's development between the two editions of the __Critique of____Pure Reason__. The __MF__ repeats the `Copernican turn', using the conditions of subjectivity to derive the metaphysical determinations of `matter' as the object of natural science with the new method called `metaphysical construction', which simultaneously grounds the mathematizability of physics. The translators provide background and analysis of Plaass's work, extend it to include the body of the __MF__ and offer a variation on the analysis of the relationship between mathematics and metaphysics in the __MF__. They discuss its relevance for contemporary paradigm-dependency approaches to the philosophy of science and for philosophical hermeneutics. The book will be of interest to Kant specialists as well as to students of the philosophy of science in general.
