More about the book
The book critiques the notion that recent advancements in medicine and biotechnology necessitate a new ethical framework. It argues that the perceived need for a paradigm shift is unfounded, particularly concerning issues like reproduction, genetics, mercy killing, and neuroscience. The author contends that these topics reflect a misunderstanding of ethics and inadvertently highlight theological implications that secular ethics often seeks to sidestep. Through this analysis, the book challenges contemporary bioethical discussions and their underlying assumptions.
