About The Book

Peter Strawson (1919–2006) was one of the most influential British philosophers of the 20th century, and The Bounds of Sense is his most famous and widely read work. First published in 1966, this book remains one of the most significant contributions to Kantian philosophy. It is especially renowned for its critique of Kant's transcendental idealism, but Strawson’s defense and development of Kant’s key ideas on subjectivity, experience, and knowledge were equally revolutionary at the time.

This book had a transformative impact on the interpretation of Kant’s philosophy, and continues to shape discussions about transcendental arguments, epistemology, and metaphysics today. Strawson’s original approach brought a fresh perspective to some of Kant’s most fundamental insights, providing a critical bridge between classical Kantian ideas and contemporary philosophical debates.

This edition of The Bounds of Sense is part of the Routledge Classics series and includes a new foreword by Lucy Allais, further enriching the text's continuing relevance and impact in modern philosophy.
