- Summary:
- Theology and theological ethics, James M. Gustafson insists, must intersect with other, diverse fields of study-particularly the hard sciences-if the religious disciplines are to remain rich, vital, and relevant in the years ahead. With trademark clarity, he relentlessly pursues the fundamental questions of theological ethics: the nature of being human, what distinguishes us from other species, how our self-interest conflicts with our sympathy and concern for others, and the role of religious faith in a moral life.
