Cover of Jeffrey Edwards: Autonomy, Moral Worth, and Right (ePUB)

This book examines the surprising ramifications of Kant’s late account of practical reason’s obligatory ends as well as a revolutionary implication of his theory of property. It thereby sheds new light on Kant’s place in the history of modern moral philosophy.
