Reviews for The Powers of Pure Reason: Kant and the Idea of Cosmic Philosophy
"Ferrarin has written a remarkable study of Kant's philosophy as a unified whole. It is challenging, daring, complex, erudite, detailed, and carefully argued, opening up new vistas on the meaning of Kant's critical enterprise. It is a major contribution to the scholarship." (Richard Velkley, author of Freedom and the End of Reason)
