• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

With the continued success of nuclear deterrence itself in question, citizens feel an urgent need to assess the clash between personal doubts, cherished principles and their governments' loudly voiced moral certainties. In this title, first published in 1984, philosophers of varying persuasions provide new analyses of these problems.
