本书据阿多诺在1963年5月至7月的讲课稿整理而成，全书围绕着对康德道德哲学的评说而展开，并结合阿多诺自身的体会，对整个西方哲学传统中的道德哲学予以了理论反思。在本书中，阿多诺分析了道德哲学与伦理学的区别，认为伦理学概念缩小和简化了对道德或伦理问题的深刻思考，因此他反对用伦理学概念代替道德哲学的概念，主张坚持使用康德意义上的“道德哲学”概念。同时，阿多诺不仅认为道德哲学是一种实践哲学，还认为在更深层次上，道德哲学也是一种理论哲学，因为理论和实践在根本上都来自生活，因而具有同一性。 在行文上，不同于阿多诺其他著作的晦涩难懂，本书朴实直白、明白晓畅，甚至不乏幽默诙谐之处，读者从字里行间也可领略到阿多诺的上课风格。
