Ethics: A Pluralistic Approach to Moral Theory, 5th ed.
Cengage Learning, 2012
ISBN-10: 1133050018
ISBN-13: 978-1133050018
In addition to covering all the standard topics, this book was, I think, the first in which an ethical theory book to consider Islam, the Navajo religion, and Buddhism. It was one of the earliest with a sympathetic discussion of the ethics of diversity, a topic now spanning two chapters. The concluding chapter is devotedto applying ethical theories to abortion, euthanasia, and the death penalty.

Contemporary Moral Issues is distinctive in several ways: narrative selections for all issues; a diverse range of moral voices; an emphasis on seeking common ground; selections from notable contemporary authors such as Jonathan Safran Foer, Atul Gawande, E. O., Wilson, Sr. Helen Prejean, and Stehen Carter; new sections on Black Lives Matter and police ethics, contraception, gene editing (CRISPR), and more.
If you read only one author on robots and warfare, let it be P. W. Singer. He's literally "written the book" on robots and warfare. Careful, insightful, with a deep awareness of the challenges of the future, this book is the most important starting point for thinking about robots and warfare. His work is a model of scholarship.

The Good Kill. 
This is s very interesting film about killing-by-drone and the toll that it takes on drone pilots. It is written and directed by Andrew Niccol, who also did the movie Gattaca. (This also has Ethan Hawke in a major role.)
Eye in the Sky (2015) This movie not only examines the use of drones in warfare but also the increasing bureaucratization of warfare, where lawyers are an on-going part of the decision-making process.
