During the last twenty years, Kant´s theory of biology has increasingly attracted the attention of scholars and developed into a field which is growing rapidly in importance within Kant studies. The volumepresents fifteen interpretative essays written by experts working in the field, covering topics from seventeenth- and eighteenth-century biological theories, the development of the philosophy of biology in Kant´s writings, the theory of organisms in Kant´s Critique of the Power of Judgment, and current perspectives on the teleology of nature.
