For students and scholars of moral philosophy

Addresses difficult questions about life and death ethics

You will gain insights into controversial moral issues

This comprehensive study explores complex ethical dilemmas surrounding the act of killing.

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 immorality of killing, McMahan looks carefully at a host of practical issues, including abortion, infanticide, the killing of animals, assisted suicide, and euthanasia.
