Reviews
Her book opens with an invitation to the reader to consider both the promise and the peril of the idea that war can ever be a noble or worthy enterprise. [Zehfuss] ultimately argues that the peril far exceeds the promise. But how she gets there is fascinating. * Cian O'Driscoll, EIA (Ethics & International Affairs), 34, No. 4 *
War and the Politics of Ethics does a] remarkable job of drawing attention to the way in which ethics can work to enhance the destructiveness of war * Thomas Gregory, Millennium: Journal of International Studies *
