Empowering Our Military Conscience

'A stimulating read, these nicely organized and well crafted essays do what’s urgently needed in our post-9/11 world: they reframe and reconsider venerable issues in the just-war tradition creatively and conscientiously. ' James Cook, US Air Force Academy, USA 'This collection of essays sheds important and interesting light on issues of contemporary just war and efficacy of ethics education in US military education. Highly recommended reading.' Martin L. Cook, United States Naval War College, USA ’This book provides an interesting collection of essays by prominent theorists as part of Ashgate’s ’Military and Defence Ethics Series’... These essays are thoughtfully written and recommended to scholars and others who are interested in JWT... Overall, this book is best described as providing three quite different collections of works, which have been published together under the common theme of JWT. The book is recommended to academic students of JWT. It is also likely to prove useful to motivated readers from the military profession who wish to challenge their understanding of this contested and developing field.’ Australian Defence Force Journal
