Ethics & moral philosophy
Hardcover. Unlike most books on the ethics of war, this book rejects the 'just war' tradition, proposing a virtue ethics of war to take its place. Like torture, war cannot be justified. It answers the question: 'If war is a very great evil, would a leader with courage, justice, compassion, and all the other moral virtues ever choose to fight a war?' Num Pages: 240 pages, black & white illustrations. BIC Classification: HPQ; JWA. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 220 x 146 x 18. Weight in Grams: 408.
