H. Lillehammer 
Companions in Guilt 
Arguments for Ethical Objectivity

This is a systematic study of ‘companions in guilt’ arguments in moral philosophy. Lillehammer distinguishes between two distinct forms of these, which he calls ‘arguments by entailment’ and ‘arguments by analogy’ respectively. For each strategy, Lillehammer examines three of its most prominent manifestations in contemporary ethical thought.
