Restating what all people intuit and what this means in moral,
specifically bioethical, discourse is the raison d'etre for this
volume. J. Daryl Charles argues that a traditional metaphysics of
natural law lies at the heart of the present reconstructive
project, and that a revival in natural-law thinking is of the
highest priority for the Christian community as we contend in,
rather than abdicate, the public square.
Nowhere is this more on display than in the realm of bioethics,
where the most basic moral questions - human personhood, human
rights versus responsibilities, the reality of moral evil, the
basis of civil society - are being debated. With his timely
application of natural-law thinking to the field of bioethics,
Charles seeks to breathe new life back into this key debate.
