A Short Treatise on the Metaphysics of Tsunamis by Jean-Pierre Dupuy

When moral crimes are unbearably great, he argues, our ability to judge evil is gravely impaired, and the temptation to regard human atrocity as an attack on the natural order of the world becomes irresistible.

Jean-Pierre Dupuy is Professor of Social and Political Philosophy at the École Polytechnique, Paris.
