The Ethics of Killing
There was a lot going on here, and it's a very dense read. I was expecting more general applied ethics, but there was a lot of metaphysics of identity too. Very carefully laid out and argued, but sometimes it felt like the larger points were getting lost in the detail - it wasn't always obvious how subsections were working together in the larger narrative.
