Hans Jonas here rethinks the foundations of ethics in light of the
awesome transformations wrought by modern technology: the threat of
nuclear war, ecological ravage, genetic engineering, and the like.
Though informed by a deep reverence for human life, Jonas's ethics
is grounded not in religion but in metaphysics, in a secular
doctrine that makes explicit man's duties toward himself, his
posterity, and the environment. Jonas offers an assessment of
practical goals under present circumstances, ending with a critique
of modern utopianism.
