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?\'
