Immanuel Kant in 15 seconds!

I got this excerpt from a 5 minute interview BBC did with AC Grayling.

BBC- “Ok, so here’s a challenge: sum up Kant in 15 seconds.”

AC Grayling - “Well…hard one that…well what Kant said was...ah…our understanding of the world around us is in part the result of the contribution that our own cognitive capacities make; so how we see things, how we think about them, how we reason about them, plays its part in constituting the way the world seems to us and once we understand that then our understanding of the world and several of the problems unique within philosophy are resolved thereby.”
