Looking for something to help me understand Kant's Critique of Pure Reason, something similar to David Harvey's Capital video series.
Also whats your thoughts on Kant and his books?

The classic is 'Kant's Transcendental Idealism: An Interpretation and Defense' by Henry E. Allison

His writing style was tortured and overcomplicated, but there is substance beneath the bloviation.

A newbie isn't going to understand Allison one bit.

OP, check out Caygill's Kant dictionary and the Cambridge companion to the CPR. Read them alongside.

Also, Jay Bernstein of The New School has recordings of one of his lecture series on the CPR payed to his website, bernsteintapes.com or something like that. He's kind of a goofy guy, but he definitely makes the material easier to handle.
