The Bomber Mafia

This book was both well-written and a fascinating (but disturbing) exposure to the weaponry of World War II. The author presents thoughtful moral dilemmas that militaries encounter during war. At its core, the book asks whether it's more moral to use conventional weapons that preserve civilian human life or to use any means necessary to end the war as soon as possible. Ultimately, I'm somewhat reassured that our modern weaponry is more advanced and specialized, which minimizes impact to non-military targets. I definitely recommend this book for both a history lesson and evaluation of moral questions during wartime.
