Reviews

'Allison has already established himself as one of the leading Kant interpreters of our time ... The book is marked by originality of interpretation, by persuasiveness and sound judgement, and thus I expect the book to become an absolute standard in the field for the next generation.' Jonathan Lear, Yale University Allison has already established himself as one of the leading Kant interpreters of our time...The book is marked by originality of interpretation, by persuasiveness and sound judgment, and thus I expect the book to become an absolute standard in the field for the next generation. Jonathan Lear, Yale University This is an extremely valuable book which Kant scholars will be referring to for many years. Together with Beck's commentary on the Critique of Practical Reason, it constitutes indispensable reading for anyone interested in a serious study of Kant's views on morality, rational agency, and freedom. Vincent M. Cooke, International Philosophical Quarterly Henry Allsion's very challenging and very rewarding book provides an analysis and defence of Kant's theory of freedom in both its theoretical and practical dimensions.
