Eric Watkin's abridgement of Werner Pluhar's masterful translation makes an ideal introduction to Kant's Critique of Pure Reason. Key selections include the Preface in B, the introduction, the Transcendental Aesthetic, the Second Analogy, the Refutation of Idealism, the first three Antinomies, the Transcendental Deduction in B, and the Canin of Pure Reason. A concise introduction provides biographical information and describes the nature of Kant's projects and the contribution of each major section of the Critique to it.
