He examines cases that may compel us to consider questions about who ought to survive when not all can. It seeks to teach something about how we actually reason concerning such life and death situations, as well as about how we ought to reason if we wish both to be consistent and properly respect human life. This book is intended for students and scholars of philosophical ethics. Bedau demonstrates the usefulness of "casuistry", or "the method of cases" in arriving at moral decisions.
