- catalog abstract ""Kant, Duty and Moral Worth is an original examination of Kant's account of moral worth. The debate over whether or not Kant said moral actions have worth only if they are carried out from duty or whether actions carried out from mixed motives can be good is complex and lies at the heart of Kant's philosophy. Philip Stratton-Lake offers a unique account of acting from duty which utilises the distinction between primary and secondary motives. He maintains that the moral law should not be understood as a normative moral reason but as playing a transcendental role. Thus, a Kantian account of moral worth is one where the virtuous agent may be responsive to concrete particular considerations whilst preserving an essential role for universal moral principles." "Kant, Duty and Moral Worth is an examination of Kant's moral thought which will appeal to Kant scholars and anyone interested in moral theory."--Jacket.".
