From Earl Call
It may have seemed clever to you to have an ethicist review a book that attempted to show that some benefits come from war, but the reasoning was as fallacious as Robert A. Hinde’s arguments in his review (10 September, p 52).
Having admitted that Michael White never claimed that the ends justified the means, Hinde proceeded to attack him as if he had, turning a review into an emotional polemic against war that seems to assume there is still someone who thinks it is a great and good thing.
