No previous work places Kant's concern with the dynamic theory of matter into such clear, detailed, and illuminating relation to the contemporaneous scientific and metaphysical background of these issues, or traces Kant's fundamental concern with a dynamic plenum through the entire career of his philosophical thought. Edwards provides a major reassessment, not only of Kant's theory of matter, but of the basic aims and character of Kant's idealism and his transcendental theory of knowledge." --Kenneth R. Westphal, University of New Hampshire
