Ethics Lite,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Ethics of War and Peace: An Introduction to Legal and Moral Issues (2nd Edition) (Paperback)
It would be best to skip this book and instead purchase Regan's Just War. While well intended, this volume is merely an overview of the subject and a superficial one, at that.

Academic potboiler,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Ethics of War and Peace: An Introduction to Legal and Moral Issues (2nd Edition) (Paperback)
This is a simple, and simplistic, attempt to review the nature of war as regarded by philosophers and ethicists. It may be that it was written so that the author might offer his students, in an ancient and ignoble practice, an intellectually slim volume as the text for a course. If you need something to lead you to primary sources, this might do. If you want an original take on this subject, or even the hint of perspicacious commentary, look elsewhere.
