Brief description:
Andrew Ward is Lecturer in Philosophy at the University of York, UK.
Review Quotes: 'Ward is refreshingly sympathetic to Kant's philosophy, and he defends it against a range of criticisms. He expounds Kant's metaphysics and ethics with admirable clarity, and since he closely follows Kant's own order of exposition in the first two Critiques, readers can easily use this book as a guide to their own reading of the texts. Throughout, Ward rightly stresses that Kant's ethics can be understood only in the context of his metaphysics, and thus presents his philosophy as an organic whole.'
