The Ethics of Killing: Problems at the Margins of Life - Oxford Ethics Series
McMahan, Jeff (Professor of Philosophy, Professor of Philosophy, Rutgers University)
This magisterial work is the first comprehensive study of the ethics of killing, where the moral status of the individual is uncertain or controversial. Drawing on philosophical notions of personal identity and the wrongness of killing, McMahan looks carefully at a host of practical issues including abortion, infanticide, the killing of animals, assisted suicide and euthanasia.
