Book Description:



This excellent introduction to bioethics provides principled moral discussion of today’s medical and scientific breakthroughs.

Written to help people understand the challenging, often controversial field of bioethics, this needed work explains and assesses the various secular approaches to bioethics that are influential today. Using currently debated topics in bioethics as illustrations, the authors discuss the theological themes that are central to a fully informed Christian perspective on bioethics. Their work provides readers with the essential background for effectively engaging the pluralistic culture in which health care is now practiced.
