A solid source book with some gems and few duds
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
This is a good, and fairly comprehensive textbook on Christian Ethics, and could be used as a substantial source book for a class in this field. As with all collections of various writers, some of its contributions are very strong and others weak. The first two chapters were not very helpful setting up a framework for thinking about Christian Ethics, but the latter chapters on issues provided some very hard-hitting and insightful essays. Sometimes the lens of Christianity would drop entirely out of the analysis (but these essays were still very good) and sometimes the Christian lens would be explicit. There is a fair mix of both conservative and liberal views on Christianity, as well as Protestant and Catholic contributors. Unfortunately (the pervasive U.S. bias) Orthodox thought is entirely absent. On the whole I would recommend this book for classroom use in a secular university or seminary setting.
