DJ has some wear and soiling. William V. O'Brien was Professor of Government Emeritus at Georgetown University. Dr. O'Brien specialized in international law and ethics and was an authority on just war doctrine. His books included "The Conduct of Just and Limited War," "Law and Morality in Israel's War with the PLO," "Nuclear War, Deterrence, and Morality" and "War And/Or Survival." He was born at Georgetown University hospital and spent his college years there, earning a Ph.D. in 1953. He spent his entire academic career there, too, beginning as an instructor in 1950, and retiring as professor emeritus in 1993. O'Brien's years at Georgetown were interrupted only by World War II, during which he served in the U.S. Army and saw action in the Pacific theater. During his years on the Georgetown faculty, Dr. O'Brien twice served as chairman of the government department. He was chairman of the Institute of World Policy, and he helped establish the Goldman visiting Israeli professorship. In his honor in 1993, the university established the William V. O'Brien Lecture in International Law and Morality. Derived from a Kirkus review: "If the world cannot survive with war, it will not survive," Professor O'Brien writes, "for the 'elimination' of war and replacement of the present system are not in prospect." This, of course, is realpolitik and O'Brien takes on the legal and moral problems involved in regulating and limiting war. A professor of government at Georgetown University and president of the Catholic Association for International Peace, O'Brien argues from a forthrightly Catholic perspective, although he calls the Church's recent proclamation of the end of war "well-intentioned nonsense." Starting with an assessment of contemporary Church teaching on war, deterrence and revolution, he continues with the similar views of other idealists, counters with the realist view. He next offers "moral guidelines" to war and arms control, summarizes the progress, and the objectives. Finally, there is a chapter on the laws of war (napalm is legal though immoral). O'Brien makes use of the latest political science concepts and terminology to treat an essentially moral problem. This is the book's main value in addition to its considered view.
