It matters to the individual, threatened with their own death, or the death of loved ones. It matters to groups and communities who have to find ways to manage death, to support the bereaved and to dispose of bodies amidst the confusion of conflict. It matters to the state, which has to find ways of coping with mass death that convey a sense of gratitude and respect for the sacrifice of both the victims of war, and those that mourn in their wake. This social and cultural history of Britain in the Second World War places death at the heart of our understanding of the British experience of conflict. Drawing on a range of material, Dying for the nation demonstrates just how much death matters in wartime and examines the experience, management and memory of death. The book will appeal to anyone with an interest in the social and cultural history of Britain in the Second World War. Death in war matters.

More than ever before, we require an ethic of species to guide our interactions with them. In this book, Ronald L. Sandler examines the value of species and the ethical significance of species boundaries and discusses what these mean for species preservation in the light of global climate change, species engineering and human enhancement. He argues that species possess several varieties of value, but they are not sacred. It is sometimes permissible to alter species, let them go extinct (even when we are a cause of the extinction) and invent new ones. Philosophically rigorous, accessible and illustrated with examples drawn from contemporary science, this book will be of interest to students of philosophy, bioethics, environmental ethics and conservation biology. 410 0$aCambridge applied ethics. 606 $aEnvironmental ethics 606 $aBioethics 606 $aSpecies 606 $aBiodiversity 606 $aNature$xEffect of human beings on$xMoral and ethical aspects 606 $aHuman-animal relationships$xMoral and ethical aspects 606 $aConservation biology$xMoral and ethical aspects 606 $aMass extinctions$xMoral and ethical aspects 606 $aGenetic engineering$xMoral and ethical aspects 606 $aClimatic changes$xMoral and ethical aspects 615 0$aEnvironmental ethics. 615 0$aBioethics. 615 0$aSpecies. 615 0$aBiodiversity. 615 0$aNature$xEffect of human beings on$xMoral and ethical aspects. 615 0$aHuman-animal relationships$xMoral and ethical aspects. 615 0$aConservation biology$xMoral and ethical aspects. 615 0$aMass extinctions$xMoral and ethical aspects. 615 0$aGenetic engineering$xMoral and ethical aspects. 615 0$aClimatic changes$xMoral and ethical aspects. 676 $a179/.1 686 $aPHI005000$2bisacsh 700 $aSandler$b Ronald L.$0888279 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910827767703321 996 $aThe ethics of species$94112214 997 $aUNINA
