Kant and the Limits of Autonomy

About this book
Autonomy for Kant is what the word literally implies: the imposition of a law on one’s own authority and out of one’s own rational resources. Here, Shell explores the limits of this phenomenon. A rigorous, philosophically and historically informed study, this book is also an extended meditation on the foundation and limits of modern liberalism.
Reviews
Susan Shell's commitment to bringing the 'pre-critical' together with the 'critical' writings, and to exploring questions of development without losing track of overall coherence in Kant's philosophical adventures, demonstrates that she is at the cutting edge of Kant scholarship.

Kant and the Limits of Autonomy is not only a magnificent work of scholarship, it is exceptionally well-written and organized. A pleasure to read from beginning to end.
