Who’s Afraid of Idealism?
Epistemological Idealism from the Kantian
and Nietzschean Viewpoints
Lanham, MD: University Press of America, 2005
By Luís M. Augusto
This is a
purely experimental book in the sense that what I aimed with it was mainly to experiment
on alternative, lighter ways of writing about ‘serious’ academic stuff. There
was no professional editing or proofreading whatsoever, thus keeping with the
experimental, indie spirit. I found the experiment worthwhile, and have no
intentions of altering its final form. Since its first appearing in December
2005, I managed to proofread the book twice and have thus corrected the 1st and
2nd printings of the first edition: a first correction, corresponding to the 1st
edition 1st printing (errata below) was hastily completed for lack of
time; the second correction (1st edition 2nd printing; errata below) was
carried out in depth. I believe I found most
of the typos and mistakes. Meanwhile, the 1st edition 3rd printing, prepared
in August 2006, is practically free of all the typos and mistakes
listed below, and has some minor improvements that I did not consider
worth listing on the errata sheets. These errata correct typos and what I consider
mistakes; they do not correct disputed grammar items, or minor deviations from
the ‘norm’; they also contain a few technical improvements, though this does
not belong to an errata list.
