‘Happiness is not an ideal of reason, but of imagination.’ Kant

In today’s increasingly fractured world of oppression and uncertainty, Kant’s moral philosophy is more important than ever before. And never has the need for moral absolutes been more pressing than in this age of doubt, disillusion and cynicism.

This is where Kant comes in, as his moral philosophy continues to compel the attention of every serious thinker in the field. Clear, concise – and overwhelmingly convincing – Ralph Walker’s stimulating, highly accessible guide spells out the power and renewed relevance of his thinking: a genuinely objective, absolute basis for a modern moral law.
