Description: |

A thorough but readable, engaging account addressed both to military personnel and the wider public. |
Synopsis: |
What significance does "ethics" have for the men and women serving in the military forces of nations around the world? What core values and moral principles collectively guide the members of this "military profession?"

It is about what they do, how they do it, what they think about it, how they behave when carrying out their activities, and how they are expected to behave, b |
