The second volume of Frances Kamm's Morality, Mortality provides the sustained and compelling answers of a deontologists to three questions involving the moraliy of killing that have been central to substantive ethics in the last twenty-five years. The first is whether there is a genuine moral distinction between killing and letting die. The second is whether there is any principled way to account for strongly hel but seemingly conflicting intuitions about the permissibility of killing some and saving others in much discussed cases involving runaway trolleys, killing to obtain vital organs, and the like. The third is whether one can supply a justification of a deontological constraint againts killing even though the violation of this constraint fromm being violated. Kamm's affirmative answers to these quetions will be familiar to those who have read he earlier articles on these topics. Nevertheless, the book greatly expands and revises her previous work and contains much new material.
