In this article it is shown that a careful analysis of Kant's "Thoughts on the True Estimation of Living Forces" leads to the conclusion that - opposite to the usually accepted interpretation - Kant's reasoning, which supposedly establishes a relationship between the tridimensionality of space and Newton's law of universal gravitation, does not yield a satisfactory explanation of space dimensionality, actually restricting itself to justify the tridimensionality of extension.
