An Introduction to the Metaphysics of Morals is a philosophical work by the German philosopher Immanuel Kant. The book is a comprehensive exploration of Kant's moral philosophy, which emphasizes the importance of reason and rationality in ethical decision-making. Kant argues that moral principles are universal and objective, and that they can be derived through a process of rational reflection. The book is divided into three parts, each of which explores a different aspect of Kant's moral philosophy. The first part focuses on the concept of moral duty, the second on the idea of the moral law, and the third on the relationship between morality and freedom. Throughout the book, Kant emphasizes the importance of autonomy, or the ability to make moral decisions based on one's own rational judgment. An Introduction to the Metaphysics of Morals is a seminal work in the field of moral philosophy, and it continues to be widely studied and debated today.The active faculty of the human mind, as the faculty of desire in its widest sense, is the power which man has, through his mental representations, of becoming the cause of objects corresponding to these representations. The capacity of a being to act in conformity with his own representations is what constitutes the life of such a being.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
