Summary
This book marks the beginning of an investigation into the ideal of scientificity in philosophy, and by what means it can be realised. An exegetical study identifies the constitutive movement of the Kantian system in its totality: the original philosophical reflection that institutes the system and aims to confer upon it the status of a science. Which makes this book an examination of operational procedures, of philosophical thought in its most original dimension, rather than of thematic concepts (space, time, categories etc.) or of philosophy as a result or a doctrine. What emerges is that Kant, even at this level, is a Newtonian philosopher.
