Immanuel Kant (1724-1804) included «What May I Hope?» as one of the three basic questions which human reason asks. Kant's Philosophy of Hope presents the first book-length study of this theme which was so important for his views. Dr. Peters's work links together Kant's philosophy of religion, moral philosophy, and philosophy of history in an exciting, new way and gives a new importance both to his philosophy of religion and to his theory of hope.
