Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We who live in this post-modern late twentieth century culture are still children of dualism. For a variety of rather complex reasons we continue to split apart and treat as radical opposites body and spirit, medicine and religion, sacred and secular, private and public, love and justice, men and women. Though this is still our strong tendency, we are beginning to discover both the futility and the harm of such dualistic splitting. Peoples of many ancient cultures might smile at the belatedness of our discovery concerning the commonalities of medicine and religion. A cur sory glance back at ancient Egypt, Samaria, Babylonia, Persia, Greece, and Rome would disclose a common thread - the close union of religion and medicine. Both were centrally concerned with healing, health, and wholeness. The person was understood as a unity of body, mind, and spirit. The priest and the physician frequently were combined in the same individual. One of the important contributions of this significant volume of essays is the sustained attack upon dualism. From a variety of vantage points, virtually all of the authors unmask the varied manifestations of dualism in religion and medicine, urging a more holistic approach. Since the editor has provided an excellent summary of each article, I shall not attempt to comment on specific contributions. Rather , I wish to highlight three 1 broad themes which I find notable for theological ethics.
Book Synopsis Christian Theology and Medical Ethics by : James B. Tubbs Jr.
Download or read book Christian Theology and Medical Ethics written by James B. Tubbs Jr. and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contemporary discourse in biomedical ethics has been greatly shaped, sustained and enriched through the insights and perspectives offered by its theologian-contributors. This volume examines the work of four Christian theologians who have significantly influenced the field of bioethics in the U.S.: Richard McCormick, SJ; Paul Ramsey; Stanley Hauerwas; and James M. Gustafson. Each theorist's writings are explored in turn, in order to elucidate, compare and contrast their foundational theological premises, their particular approaches to moral reasoning, and their considered responses to selected medico-moral issues. The final chapter reflects some of the author's own critical responses in dialogue with the study's four subjects, and offers general suggestions about the moral perspective afforded by Christian theology. This volume should be of interest both to those seeking a fuller understanding of contemporary discussions in bioethics and to those studying Christian ethics in the modern era.

Book Synopsis Children, Families, and Health Care Decision Making by : Lainie Friedman Ross
Download or read book Children, Families, and Health Care Decision Making written by Lainie Friedman Ross and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2002 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ross here presents an original and controversial look at the moral principles that guide parents in making health care decisions for their children, and the role of children in the decision-making process. She opposes the current movement to increase child autonomy, in favor of respect for family autonomy and proposes significant changes in what informed consent allows and requires for pediatric health care decisions. The first systematic medical ethics book that focuses specifically on children's health care, Ross's work has important things to say to health care providers who work with children as well as to ethicists and public policy analysts.
Book Synopsis Children in Medical Research by : Lainie Friedman Ross
Download or read book Children in Medical Research written by Lainie Friedman Ross and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2006-02-09 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lainie Ross presents a rigorous critical investigation of the development of policy governing the involvement of children in medical research. She examines the shift in focus from protection of medical research subjects, enshrined in post-World War II legislation, to the current era in which access is assuming greater precedence. Infamous studies such as Willowbrook (where mentally retarded children were infected with hepatitis) are evidence that before the policy shift protection was not always adequate, even for the most vulnerable groups. Additional safeguards for children were first implemented in many countries in the 1970s and 1980s; more recent policies and guidelines are trying to promote greater participation. Ross considers whether the safeguards work, whether they are fair, and how they apply in actual research practice. She goes on to offer specific recommendations to modify current policies and guidelines. Ross examines the regulatory structures (e.g. federal regulations and institutional review boards), the ad hoc policies (e.g. payment in pediatric research and the role of schools as research venues), the actual practices of researchers (e.g. the race/ethnicity of enrolled research subjects or the decision to enroll newborns) as well as the decision-making process (both parental permission and the child's assent), in order to provide a broad critique. Some of her recommendations will break down current barriers to the enrolment of children (e.g. permitting the payment of child research subjects; allowing healthy children to be exposed to research that entails more than minimal risk without requiring recourse to 407 panels); whereas other recommendations may create new restrictions (e.g., the need for greater protection for research performed in schools; restrictions on what research should be done in the newborn nursery). The goal is to ensure that medical research is done in a way that promotes the health of current and future children without threatening, to use the words of Hans Jonas, 'the erosion of those moral values whose loss . . . would make its most dazzling triumphs not worth having'.

Norton & Company. This book was released on 2007-07-17 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Quammen brilliantly and powerfully re-creates the 19th century naturalist's intellectual and spiritual journey."--Los Angeles Times Book Review Twenty-one years passed between Charles Darwin's epiphany that "natural selection" formed the basis of evolution and the scientist's publication of On the Origin of Species. Why did Darwin delay, and what happened during the course of those two decades? The human drama and scientific basis of these years constitute a fascinating, tangled tale that elucidates the character of a cautious naturalist who initiated an intellectual revolution.
Book Synopsis A Modern Relation of Theology and Science Assisted by Emergence and Kenosis by : Bradford McCall
Download or read book A Modern Relation of Theology and Science Assisted by Emergence and Kenosis written by Bradford McCall and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2018-02-28 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How should we attempt to understand the relationship between theology and science in the twenty-first century? In this book, I will attempt to answer this question by examining several previous attempts to classify this relationship. I also develop my personal view of the relation, thereafter discussing some Catholic contributions to this project, and then revisit some of my previously published material, highlighting the role of panentheism therein, and noting an emergent implication from the literature: the resultant possibilities for God—an implication that creates space for a broadly relational perspective of the process of emergence. These movements allow me to argue that kenosis and emergence can add to the discussion of understanding the theology and science relationship. Herein, I advocate a monistic process-based view of the overlapping relationship between theology and science.

Book excerpt: Darwinism and the Divine examines the implications of evolutionary thought for natural theology, from the time of publication of Darwin's On the Origin of Species to current debates on creationism and intelligent design.

Book Synopsis Anti-Bible Theories Will Destroy Human Civilization - Proof by : Dr George Joseph k PhD
Download or read book Anti-Bible Theories Will Destroy Human Civilization - Proof written by Dr George Joseph k PhD and published by GOD JESUS PROOF ACADEMY. This book was released on 2020-06-15 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book clearly proves that the anti-Bible theories of any kind will ultimately lead to destruction families, societies, nations and the world. The nations which have banned Bible and humiliated Christians are right witnessing the destruction of their families and societies around the world. The anti-Bible theories have infiltrated the societies through modern liberal theology masquerading in the Churches and Bible colleges around the world. It rejects the authority of the Bible. It rejects the revelation, inspiration, inerrancy and infallibility of the Bible. It is against the God of the Bible. It rejects the deity of Jesus, and personality of the Holy Spirit. It denies the existence of devil and sin. It denies the sin of man. It denies the existence of absolute moral values. It has anti-biblical views about the salvation of man and eschatology. In short the views of Modern liberal theology are very close to views of the enemies of Christianity and the enemies use them to attack Christianity. The disillusionment created by modern liberal theology within the Church is responsible for the weakening of the Church, and revival of Islam and Hinduism and New Age movements around the world, in modern times. There is a SUBTLE CONSPIRACY against Jesus Christ, His gospel, and His values. Destruction of Biblical theology will lead to the destruction of basic human values and thereby lead to the collapse and demise of human society.
