Description

The Living thoughts Series presents the works of some of the greatest minds the world has ever witnessed. Thinkers, philosophers and other intellectuals are all profiled along with their major works.

Immauel Kant (1724-1804) was a German philosopher who, despite his humble background, stunted and deformed body, worked hard to be socially accepted. He published some startling essays in dynamics and on Newton's theories of the universe. Rejecting both rationalism and empiricism, he developed his theory of transcendental Idealism.
