Whose Life Is Worth More?
![Jese Leos](https://sentence.apooobooks.com/author/jack-butler.jpg)
A Provocative Exploration of the Value of Human Life
In Whose Life Is Worth More, ethicist Jacob M. Appel challenges us to confront the difficult and often uncomfortable question of the value of human life. Drawing on a wide range of sources, from philosophy and economics to law and medicine, Appel argues that there is no one-size-fits-all answer to this question, and that the value of a life depends on a variety of factors, including the individual's circumstances, their relationships, and their potential contributions to society.
Appel begins by exploring the different ways in which we value human life. He argues that we often make decisions about who deserves to live and die based on factors such as age, disability, and social status. However, Appel argues that these factors are not always relevant to the question of a person's value. For example, he argues that the life of a disabled person is just as valuable as the life of an able-bodied person, and that the life of an elderly person is just as valuable as the life of a young person.

Appel also challenges the assumption that all human lives are created equal. He argues that there are some lives that are more valuable than others, and that we are justified in making decisions about who deserves to live and die based on these differences. For example, he argues that the life of a doctor is more valuable than the life of a criminal, and that the life of a child is more valuable than the life of an adult.
Appel's arguments are sure to provoke controversy, but they are also essential reading for anyone who wants to understand the complex and important issue of the value of human life. Whose Life Is Worth More is a challenging and thought-provoking book that will force you to confront your own beliefs about the value of life and death.
