  • Challenges the belief that being brought into existence is beneficial or at least not harmful
  • Argues that coming into existence is always a serious harm as those who never exist cannot be deprived
  • Draws on psychological literature to explain why people overestimate the quality of their lives and resist the suggestion that they were seriously harmed by being brought into existence
  • Advocates for the 'anti-natal' view, arguing that it is always wrong to have children and that it would be better if humanity became extinct
  • Shows how the anti-natal view combined with pro-choice views about foetal moral status yields a pro-death view about abortion at earlier stages of gestation
  • Defends the counter-intuitive implication that it would be better if humanity became extinct, solving many conundrums of moral theory about population
