  The Kantian Aesthetic explains the kind of perceptual knowledge involved in aesthetic judgments. It
does so by linking Kant's aesthetics to a critically upgraded account of his theory of knowledge. This upgraded theory
emphasizes those conceptual and imaginative structures which Kant terms, respectively, "categories" and "schemata." By
describing examples of aesthetic judgment, it is shown that these judgments must involve categories and fundamental
schemata (even though Kant himself, and most commentators after him, have not fully appreciated the fact). It is argued,
in turn, that this shows the aesthetic to be not just one kind of pleasurable experience amongst others, but one based
on factors necessary to objective knowledge and personal identity, and which, indeed, itself plays a role in how these
capacities develop.
  
  In order to explain how individual aesthetic judgments are justified, and the
aesthetic basis of art, however, the Kantian position just outlined has to be developed further. This is done by
exploring some of his other ideas concerning how critical comparisons inform our cultivation of taste, and art's
relation to genius. By linking the points made earlier to a more developed account of this horizon of critical
comparisons, a Kantian approach can be shown to be both a satisfying and comprehensive explanation of the cognitive
basis of aesthetic experiences. It is shown also that the approach can even cover some of the kinds of avant-garde works
which were thought previously to limit its relevance.

  the test is whether the author's positions is coherently related to
other scholarship in the field of study and illuminating in its own right in some respect. Crowther's book passes this
test with flying colours. Jennifer A. McMahon, British Journal of Aesthetics Vol.

  An exciting and provocative thesis... the book is well-written and it gives readers who
have some familiarity with Kant's critical project plenty to consider. Corey McCall,
Philosophy in Review 
  
  It is a fascinating fact about Kant's Critique of Judgment (as with his
entire oeuvre) that so many scholars who delve seriously and deeply into its themes and objectives can reveal something
new and illuminating about Kant's aims, purposes, or implications for the present. Crowther achieves this. Ultimately,
the test is whether the author's position is coherently related to other scholarship in the field of study and
illuminating in its own right in some respect. Crowther's book passes this test with flying colours. Jennifer McMahon, British Journal of Aesthetics 
  
  Those who want to
develop Kant's ideas in new directions will find, as I have, that Crowther's approach brings one to think about what is
really important in Kant's account and why that might be worth preserving. Brian Watkins,
Journal of Aesthetics and Art Criticism
