Kant published this text anonymously in 1764, and in it he addresses madness and human nature with humour and irony.

It will interest readers of philosophy and those who want to trace the origins of psychiatry.
Immanuel Kant was a German philosopher. Born in Königsberg in the Kingdom of Prussia, he is considered one of the central thinkers of the Enlightenment. His comprehensive and systematic works in epistemology, metaphysics, logic, ethics, aesthetics, political theory, and the philosophy of religion have made him one of the most influential and highly discussed figures in modern Western philosophy.
