Taking the reader through the stages of life from conception to resurrection, the authors plumb the vital wisdom of the Christian tradition, coupled with pastoral training and an awareness of medical and scientific data, to address ethical and moral issues. Among the topics covered are marriage and sexuality, embryos and stem-cell research, newborns and disabilities, addictions and family systems, and end-of-life care.

    Once again, the Brecks give us a thoughtful, well-researched, theologically informed book on bioethics that will set the stage for study and discussion for a long time to come.
