The major example used in this voume , the massacre at My Lai, is to be thought of as the occasion for raising and investigating the moral and legal questions of individual and collective responsibility. We are not trying to pass judgment on Lt. Calley, his company, or his superiors; that has been done and surely will be reviewed. We are not pronouncing a verdict on the American system; that has also been done, and it will continue to be done in the years of social retrospection which hopefully will follow the Indochina war. Yet, neither are we putting off judgment. Instead, the philosophers in this volume are examining the grounds for holding various notions of responsibility and the application of such notions of atrocity that was My Lai. In brief, the aim of this book and of the series as a whole, is to produce exciting new philosophical contributions to the major ethical controversies of the day." (p. vii) [Now think of contemporary Moral Issues of sinking "drug" boats and killing their crews in international waters, kidnapping a sovereign nation's President and extraditing him for trial in another country, commandeering oil tankers in international waters, invading another sovereign country to kill drug lords and their followers, using military might on domestic soil to achieve "political" goals of the country's President, etc. // Glossy orange wrappers with Title lettering in thick white letters on top third front cover, just above Editor name lettering in small black letters at upper left middle front cover; Illustration on lower half front cover of two soldiers in helmets, profiled leftward, with an unhelmeted man looking toward reader, partially obscured by a helmet, with a human hand pointing off to the right, suggesting that "responsibility lies elsewhere".

Hardcover with dust jacket. Although a number of books have appeared on the exploration of space, this is the first to be written for the general reader by a panel of scientists who are themselves prominent in the field of current research. It is of particular interest and importance because it comes at a time when man's conquest of space is moving from the realm of conjecture into that of experimental fact. Compiled under the distinguished editorship of Professor Bates, it systematically surveys the whole subject, from the construction of rockets and the research already done on the upper atmosphere to the launching of artificial satellites and the final possibility of voyages to the nearer planets. Such questions as the possible use of an 'atomic drive', hazards from meteors and cosmic rays, and the immense difficulties of navigation in inter-planetary space, are carefully considered. The authors have not set out to provide easy simplifications but to describe the problems that actually face research workers and the means that are being tried out to overcome them. There is however nothing in the main text that cannot be followed by an intelligent reader with no scientific training. Where a mathematical treatment of a problem has seemed useful, it has been provided separately in an appendix. 224 p. illustrations good condition, some tears in the edges of dust jacked are taped.…
