This book gives a theologically satisfying discussion of health and
disease that addresses key areas neglected by medical ethicists. We
use such words as "health," "disease," and "illness" all the time
without stopping to consider exactly what we understand by them.
Yet their meanings are far from straightforward, and disagreements
over them have important practical consequences in health care and
bioethics. In this book, Neil Messer develops a distinctive and
innovative theological account of these concepts. He engages in
earnest with debates in the philosophy of medicine and disability
studies and draws on a wide array of theological resources
including Barth, Bonhoeffer, Aquinas, and recent disability
theologies. By enabling us to understand health in the wider
perspective of the flourishing and ultimate destiny of human
beings, Messer's Flourishing sheds new light on a range of
practical bioethical issues and dilemmas.
