Health and Human Flourishing - Religion, Medicine, and Moral Anthropology

Klappentext "Those who have lamented the moral minimalism of much conventional bioethics should celebrate this splendid volume. Those who have called for 'a richer bioethics' should delight in it. Its attention to the nature of human nature and of human flourishing provides an antidote to the reduction of morality to universal and minimal principles. . . . The book is enough to give one hope for the future of bioethics."—Allen Verhey, professor of theological ethics, Duke Divinity School Zusammenfassung Provides contributions from a range of disciplines that mine the intersection of the secular and the religious! the medical and the moral! to unearth the ethical and clinical implications. This title includes an examination of how a theological anthropology can help us better understand health care! social policy! and science.
