FORMAT Hardcover LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand NewThe discussion of Kant's practical philosophy has been marred by viewing it as purely formalist and centred only on the categorical imperative. This study sets out a much more vivid account of the nature and range of Kant's concerns demonstrating his commitment to the notion of rational religion and including extensive discussion of his treatment of evil.
