This volume is concerned with how we ought to evaluate the individual and collective actions on which the existence, numbers and identities of future people depend -- discussed here as the `problem of contingent future persons’. For it seems that those future persons who are brought into existence by such actions cannot benefit from or be harmed by them in any conventional sense.

It offers adizzying bombardier’s-eye view of the sky over wartime Italy, where Hellerencountered the characters and inciden
