reviewed War and Christian Ethics: Classic and Contemporary Readings on the Morality of War on April 22, 2013
War and Christian Ethics
If I remember correctly, I read this roughly 25-30 years ago... I'll have to get a copy & re-read it, because I don't remember much other than the fact that Mr. Laqueur's writing impressed me at the time.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
O.k., I was right the first time- an absolutely indispensable work on this topic, even if it is somewhat dated now (Professor Laqueur had a revised edition of this book published in 1997, though I have not read it).
