“The book is remarkable in many ways. … its claims are carefully supported by study of both Kant’s writings and their social and intellectual context. … The authors take up the challenge of writing a book that is neither apologetic nor purely scholarly, using the vast potential and many strains of Kant’s thought to address the pressing social problems of today and tomorrow.” (Vadim Chaly, Kant-Studien, Vol. 109 (4), 2018)
