Editorial Reviews

Review

"With so much bioethical thinking supporting the culture of death, I can think of no better champion of a culture of life than Professor William E. May. Professor May has given us a book which is useful not only for its masterful summary of the moral magisterium on bioethics, but also for its treatment of such issues as contraception, artificial reproduction, the care of the dying, human experimentation, and the definition of death and organ transplants." --Dr. Mark S. Latkovic, Associate Professor of Moral Theology, Sacred Heart Major Seminary

"---a valuable contribution dealing with bioethical issues from a Catholic perspective, a work offering Catholics a sure guide to making morally correct decisions in the often complex field of bioethics, sure to become a standard reference and textbook for the bioethical issues dominating the contemporary landscape." --Rev. Paul F. deLadurantaye, S.T.D., Assistant Professor of Theology, Notre Dame Graduate School of Christendom College

4.0 out of 5 stars Catholic bioethics, December 6, 2008
By J. A. Raymakers (The Netherlands) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Catholic Bioethics and Gift of Human Life (Paperback)
Catholic Bioethics and Gift of Human Life
This book is a very thorough and up-to-date review of all the important issues in human bioethics. The way in which very recent discussions on important questions in the professional litterature are reviewed and confronted with the teachings of the Catholic Church is outstanding. Namely the problems concerning the criteria of death in relation to organ donation, questions on reproductive medicine and abortion, care for the dying and experimentation on humans are confronted in a balanced way. An important book even for those who do not share the moral teaching of the Catholic Church.
