Too Valuable to Die?
Title
Too Valuable to Die? (video)
Description
In this video, Silke Ackermann (Director, Museum of the History of Science) Liz Bruton (Co-curator, “Dear Harry”… Henry Moseley: A Scientist Lost to War) and Nigel Biggar (Regius Professor of Moral and Pastoral Theology, University of Oxford) discuss the ethics of scientists going to war. They discuss the ethics of scientific research being used for military ends as well as whether scientists being held back from frontline service means others serve and die in their place.
