Description
"This new edition and translation of the Groundwork is designed especially for students. A sketch of Kant's life provides essential context to aid our understanding of Kant as a person and a philosopher. An extensive and comprehensive introduction explains key concepts and the central themes of each part of the work, and looks at some common objections to Kant's ideas. An Analysis of the Arguments outlines and examines major steps in Kant's reasoning. Detailed notes aim to clarify Kant's thoughts and strategies, to correct some misunderstandings of his doctrines, and to suggest various interpretations of difficult passages."--Jacket.
