Description
Just about everyone will face a difficult bioethics decision at some point.
In this book a theologian, ethicist, and lawyer equips Christians to make such decisions based on biblical truth, wisdom, and virtue. Though a relatively new discipline, bioethics has generated extraordinary interest due to a number of socially pressing issues.
Bioethics and the Christian Life places bioethics within the holistic context of the Christian life, both developing a general Christian approach to making bioethics decisions and addressing a number of specific, controversial areas of bioethics. Clear, concise, and well-organized, the book is divided into three sections.
The first lays the theological foundation for bioethics decision-making and discusses the importance of wisdom and virtue in working through these issues.
The second section addresses beginning-of-life issues, such as abortion, stem-cell research, and infertility treatments.
The third section covers end-of-life issues, such as living wills, accepting and refusing medical treatment, and treatment of patients in permanent vegetative states.
