An exploration of bioethics and medicine from Richard McCormick. Richard A. McCormick S.J. (1922-February 12, 2000) was a leading Catholic moral theologian who reshaped Catholic thought in the United States. He wrote many journal articles on Catholic social teachings and moral theory. He was an expert in Catholic medical ethics and for many years wrote the "Notes on Moral Theology" column in Theological Studies. During his career, he served as a professor of Christian ethics at the University of Notre Dame and Georgetown. In an article in America magazine (July 17, 1993), McCormick wrote that the prohibition of any serious discussion of Humanae Vitae had led to "a debilitating malaise that has undermined the credibility of the magisterium in other areas."

Author succeeded in diplomatic but powerful critique of faulty doctrines without being censured like some of his peers. His most powerful statement is that it is wrong "to teach with clarity and confidence in the presence of nagging, continuing doubt. " This book should be on every pastor's bookshelf.
