First edition of Kant's "Religion Within the Boundaries of Mere Reason", the seminal work in which he develops his religion of reason and most fully accounts for his philosophy of religion. Here he argues that religion can be entirely grounded in reason rather than divine revelation. Originally published as a series of four journal articles the book consists of four parts in which Kant explores the parallels between revealed religion and philosophical theology.
