| Summary: |
This work presents Kant as a vital revolutionary thinker, showing that his Practical Philosophy has been marred by views that it is formalist and centred on categorical imperative. Discussing his commitment to the notion of rational religion and his treatment of evil, this important study provides a vivid account of Kant's concerns. Reviews of the Hardback Edition 'Banham provides nothing less than a wholesale, unified and detailed rethinking of Kant's argument...this is both a rich and ambitious book.' - British Journal for the History of Philosophy 'The knowledge Banham displays of Kant's works and the number of points he makes are highly impressive.' - Mind '...a valuable resource for any reader interested in Kantian ethics or Kantian exegesis.' - Political Theory. |
