Kant's Critique of the Power of Judgment, first published in 1790, was the last of the great philosopher's three critiques, following on the heels of Critique of Pure Reason (1781) and Critique of Practical Reason (1788). In the first two, Kant dealt with metaphysics and morality; in the third, Kant turns to the aesthetic dimension of human experience, showing how our experiences of natural and artistic beauty, the sublime magnitude and might of nature, and of purposive organisms and ecological systems gives us palpable evidece that it is possible for us not only to form moral intentions, but also to realize our freely chosen moral goals within nature as we experience it. The present volume collects twelve of the most important critical discussions on the Critique of the Power of Judgment written by leading Kant scholars and aestheticians from the United States and Great Britain. In addition to a substantive introduction by the editor, the book includes an extensive, annotated bibliography of the most important work on Kant and on the background and arguments of his third Critique published throughout the twentieth century.

This well-balanced collection of essays is the foremost, and for a time will certainly be the defnitive, anthology on Kant's Critique of the Power of Judgment."
Allen W. Wood, Stanford University An indispensable collection of essays for every reader of Kant's third Critique.
Frederick Beiser, Syracuse University This collection gives an excellent overview of English-language work on the Critique of the Power of Judgement in recent decades.

Eighteenth-Century Book Reviews Online
This volume is an excellent collection of already classic articles from the past 25 years. It covers the entire spectrum of topics discussed in the Critique of the Power of Judgment with an even mix of helpful explanations of its fundamental issues and provocative suggestions about how best to understand Kant's original insights.
Eric Watkins, University of California, San Diego
