Preamble on the Distinguishing Feature of All Metaphysical Cognition -- General Question of the Prolegomena: Is metaphysics possible at all? -- General Question: How is cognition from pure reason possible? -- The Main Transcendental Question, First Part: How is pure mathematics possible? -- The Main Transcendental Question, Second Part: How is pure natural science possible? -- The Main Transcendental Question, Third Part: How is metaphysics in general possible? -- Solution to the General Question of the Prolegomena: How is metaphysics as science possible? -- App. On What Can Be Done in Order to Make Metaphysics As Science Actual.

Summary: Kant is the central figure of modern philosophy. He sought to rebuild philosophy from the ground up, and he succeeded in permanently changing its problems and methods. This new translation of the Prolegomena, which is the best introduction to his philosophy, presents his thought clearly by paying careful attention to his original language. Also included are selections from the Critique of Pure Reason, which fill out and explicate some of Kant's central arguments, and in which Kant himself explains his special terminology. The volume is completed by a historical and philosophical introduction, explanatory notes, a chronology and a guide to further reading.
