Grounding for the Metaphysics of Morals: With on a Supposed Right to Lie Because of Philanthropic Concerns

Immanuel Kant

, 1993
Which translation of the Grundlegung is right for you?
There is no doubt that Kant's Grundlegung zur Metaphysik der Sitten is one of the three or four most important texts of modern moral philosophy. The only question is, if you have to rely on an English translation, which translation is best? I think that depends on why you are reading this book. If you have only a casual interest in Kant, or if you are reading this book only because it is ...

Immanuel Kant
Hackett Pub Co
, 1995
Understand Kantian ethics, it is not easy
I read this book for a graduate seminar on Ethics. In "The Groundwork of the Metaphysics of Morals," Kant astutely observes how ordinary people speak about morality. He argues, ordinary people's views are presupposed about morality, that there is one supreme moral principle it is the "Categorical Imperative" which is discussed in section two of the book. In section one, he talks about value, ...

AWESOME
I have read this book at least 30 times. I first read it when I was 13, in 1983 and it really made me think about who I was and who I wanted to be. I last read it last week at 35 and I am now passing it along to my 13 year old son. It is a book that should be read by everyone, teens and parents alike will get a kick out of this book.

Grounding and Bonding
This an excellent book. The images inside it are very clear and say a lot about the written material. Although some pictures and topics are repetitive, this is mostly due to the proper nature of the NEC, which in several sections seems to repite what is mentioned before. Of course, as the NEC also does, it keeps mixing up the topics of grounding and bonding. I highly recommend it on this matter.

Earth Path-straight to my personal situation
I bought this the day before I moved and maybe that's why I find it so meaningful. I've been in a situation of rootless-ness and upheaval and Starhawk seemed to help me see why this is so unsettling to me. It has helped me understand the path I'm on and where I need to go. Environment, a home, knowing the land around us have great spiritual significance for many of us. Read this and follow with a ...

Best Grounding Book on the Market
For those that want to learn about grounding this is THE book to get. It explains both the 'why' and the 'how' for grounding methods used in electrical systems. There is so much confusion and so many misconceptions out there regarding grounding that I believe this is a must read for engineers, electricians, and technicians. I have read or used several other books including those by Mike Holt, Jim ...

Apart from sharing the same fate, assassination, his intellectual works is standing up to the test of time and like Trotsky's own works, is now proving to be prophetic. Rodney's "The Groundings with my Brothers," first published almost 40 years ago analyzed the historical development of the African Diaspora and that community's ...

Great reference work, could use more detail
This is a great reference work, although I could have used a little more detail to solve my particular problem. Cleared up some of my misconceptions on how grounded systems came about. Definitely a must for anyone doing electrical work.

Butterworth-Heinemann, 2004
over priced!
the Kindle version of this book is way over priced for what you get. It would be much cheaper to do a google search on the subject. MIL-STD and other government technical docs, that you can download for free, are much better.

Simon Blackburn

Best Introduction to Blackburn's Quasi-Realism
This book is an introduction to the philosophy of language; it's also one of the most important books in contemporary meta-ethics. Chapters 5-7, I think, constitute the best introduction to Blackburn's quasi-realism. As a matter of fact, these chapters may constitute the best expression of the nature of, and motivations for, the quasi-realist project that Blackburn has published. (Ruling ...
