Couverture du Brian Rappert: Non-lethal Weapons as Legitimising Forces? (ePUB)

As mankind finds ever more impious ways to kill and maim, some look to non-lethal weapons as a fix. Brian Rappert discusses the technologies involved and the ethics of, for example blinding someone with a laser, leaving them blind forever, versus killing them outright.
