The Just War: An American Reflection on the Morality of War in Our Time

Peter Temes

A critical history of Just War thinking, beginning with ancient epics and extending through American responses to the terrorist attacks of September 11. Mr. Temes's book proposes a radically new vision, one that respects the received tradition but takes account of the moral experience of the world today.

The Just War: An American Reflection on the Morality of War in Our Time is on the USMC (Civilian) list.
