A Response to 'Kantian Space and Time Reconsidered'

It should be stated at the outset of the discussion of Kantian space and time that the author does not believe Kant's final views on this topic are defensible. The reasons leading to this opinion come from the lessons of modern science, and not from a direct refutation of Kant's basic thesis that time and space are subjective a priori conditions for cognition. Kant's assumption is one of many starting places for a theory about time and space and is as defensible as any other starting place. His theory's eventual failure is caused by something other than the particular set of axioms that he offers to the reader.
