Kant and Natural Science
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 25 February 2009
Extract
The title of this article might quite well be given the more hackneyed form, Has Kant answered Hume? Much of the discussion pertains to this latter question, but as the aim is also to emphasize some points concerned with Kant himself a deviation in title may be permissible.

page 217 note 1 It might be noted in passing that Descartes has the very same problem: it. appears in connection with sense-experience and its status as knowledge. He has to make use of the Deity to justify the synthesis of sense-qualities with extension or else sense-experience never is knowledge at all. Which alternative is the view of Descartes is not very clear. Kant's variation on Descartes' theme is interesting.
