The Worse than Nothing Account of Harm: A Fallen Hero
Abstract Daniel Immerman has recently put forward a novel account of harm, the Worse than Nothing Account . We argue that this account faces fatal problems in cases in which an agent performs several simultaneous actions. We also argue that our criticism is considerably more powerful than another one that has recently been advanced.
