520    "In Kant and the Foundations of Moralilty, Halla Kim 
       explores the leading themes in Kant's philosophical ethics
       from a structural-methodological lens to highlight the 
       activities of reason vis-à-vis the blind forces of brute 
       nature.  Basing the study on Kant's short, but monumental,
       Groundwork of the Metaphysics of Morals, Kim also draws on
       other major writings by Kant and his critics.  Kim shows 
       that philosophical ethics, as Kant conceived it, must 
       capture the gist of the ineluctable, inescapable, and 
       irreducible freedom we strive to exemplify in our 
       practical lives.  Viewed this way, the moral law is none 
       other than the law of the will determining itself.  It is 
       the law of the self-activity of the will.  Contending that
       the concepts and doctrines in Kant's ehtics should be 
       understood as an ethics of the self-activity of the will, 
       Kim argues that the categorical imperative is the 
       particular way this moral law is addressed to finite 
       rational being." - provided by the publisher
