Valerie Geneviève Hébert (University of Toronto). Hitler’s Generals on Trial: The Last War Crimes Tribunal At Nuremburg (University Press of Kansas, 2010).
“A thoughtful and sobering work. Hébert delivers a complicated story with clarity and balance: a story of noble ideals that fell short in practice, of national self-delusion and political compromise, of revealed truths that took generations to sink in, and of legal innovations that still affect us today.”
—Geoffrey P. Megargee, author of Inside Hitler’s High Command
Matti Häyry (University of Manchester). Rationality and the Genetic Challenge: Making People Better? (Cambridge University Press, 2010)
“Häyry gives us a masterful topography and analysis of the philosophical and ethical questions raised by attempts to 'make better future people and to make existing people better.' Anyone who is interested in the challenges posed by genetics (and who wouldn't be?) - from educated lay persons to professionals in the field - will find this a must read by one of today's most outstanding philosophers.”
