Recenzje

'This is a fine collection that will help students and scholars understand the intricacies of Kant's multifaceted theory of freedom. When we see how Kant's own contemporaries debated some of the same interpretive and philosophical issues that we debate today, we get insight into the enduring appeal of Kant's approach. No philosopher before or since offered an examination of freedom as complicated and yet rewarding as Kant's, and here we can see his own contemporaries clashing over what Kant meant and how we humans are or are not free.' Frederick Rauscher, Michigan State University
