One of the central texts of Western Philosophy and an effort to connect Newtonian Physics with the best of Continental Rationalism and Empiricism. Its writing was inspired by the skeptic David Hume waking Kant from his "dogmatic slumbers."

Offers a framework upon which the whole of Modern Philosophy is based. This book presents an investigation into the nature of human reason, its knowledge and illusions. It brings together the two opposing schools of philosophy: Rationalism, which grounds our knowledge in reason, and Empiricism, which traces our knowledge to experience.
