In this book, Kenneth F. Rogerson explores the first half of Kant's Critique of Judgment, entitled the \"Critique of Aesthetic Judgment.\" Rogerson provides an interpretation of arguably the most important issue in Kant's aesthetic theory, namely, a free harmony of the imagination and understanding. He uses this interpretation to explore several other important issues in Kant's aesthetic theory, including his distinction between art and natural beauty, the doctrine of aesthetic ideas, and the connection between beauty and morality.

Kant wants to argue that the mental state of free harmony (which is similar to cognition) is pleasing for everyone this is claim is foundational to Kant's position. [...]it seems that Kant has a reasonably well defined strategy to make an argument for this claim. According to Kant, making an ordinary cognitive judgment, e.g. \"Fido is a dog\" amounts to recognizing that a certain manifold of the imagination (sense manifold) conforms to a particular rule of the understanding (the dog rule). Recognizing free play is recognizing orderliness without applying a concept. [...]we must assume that we all recognize free harmony in the same way. Despite my minor concerns, Allison's book on Kant's Aesthetic theory will be the dominant force in scholarship on this issue for the foreseeable future and properly so.
