Kant's Theory of Ethics: Or Practical Philosophy is a book written by the renowned philosopher, Immanuel Kant, and first published in 1873. The book is a comprehensive study of Kant's ethical theory, which is based on the concept of the categorical imperative. Kant argues that moral actions are those that are performed out of a sense of duty, rather than for personal gain or pleasure. He believes that there are universal moral principles that apply to all rational beings, and that these principles can be derived through reason. The book is divided into three parts. The first part provides an overview of Kant's ethical theory, including his concept of the categorical imperative and his distinction between hypothetical and categorical imperatives. The second part explores the practical application of Kant's theory, including his views on moral duties, virtues, and the role of reason in moral decision-making. The final part of the book examines the relationship between Kant's ethical theory and other philosophical traditions, including utilitarianism and natural law theory. Kant's Theory of Ethics: Or Practical Philosophy is a seminal work in the field of ethics and continues to be widely studied and debated by philosophers today.Comprising Fundamental Principles Of The Metaphysic Of Morals, Dialectic And Methodology Of Practical Reason, And On The Radical Evil In Human Nature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
