The Ethics of Death
Religious and Philosophical Perspectives in Dialogue
Description:... In The Ethics of Death, the authors, one a
philosopher and one a religious studies scholar,
undertake an examination of the deaths that we experience as members of a
larger moral community. Their respectful and engaging dialogue highlights the
complex and challenging issues that surround many deaths in our modern world
and helps readers frame thoughtful responses. Unafraid of difficult topics,
Steffen and Cooley fully engage suicide, physician assisted suicide,
euthanasia, capital punishment, abortion, and war as areas of life where death
poses moral challenges.
