Iain King
Iain Benjamin King CBE is a British writer. King was appointed a Commander of the Order of the British Empire in the 2013 Birthday Honours, for services to governance in Libya, Afghanistan and Kosovo.[1][2]
In Kosovo he held a senior political role in UNMIK, about which he co-authored a book in 2006.[3]
In his 2008 book, How to Make Good Decisions and Be Right All the Time: Solving the Riddle of Right and Wrong, King develops a methodology for moral decision-making.[4] King qualifies his system as quasi-utilitarian.[5]
Secrets of the Last Nazi, based on extensive research of the Nazi era, is King's debut novel.[6] The Sun wrote: "A brilliant but unconventional academic races shadowy agents, a deranged killer and power-mad priests to expose a vast conspiracy."[7]
