Reviews"An outstanding resource-an ethics text that is deeply Christian, conceptually clear, personally engaging, and intellectually substantive! This is an exceptionally helpful book for Christians concerned about the moral life. Hollinger provides a clear map to guide readers through the rugged terrain of competing theoretical frameworks and complex practical questions."-Christine Pohl, professor of social ethics, Asbury Theological Seminary"Much that is written in Christian ethics today focuses on only specific contemporary issues or is limited to a Christian perspective far removed from the world in which we live. In delightful contrast, Dennis Hollinger's work, while rich in application, is richer still in ethical theory, cultural critique, and historical, theological, and empirical analysis. These tools will equip the reader to tackle far more than the particular issues of today. Hollinger also accomplishes the difficult feat of staying closely in touch with today's pluralistic culture while remaining genuinely biblical and theological in outlook. When I read Hollinger's work, every time I finished a chapter I found myself more eager for another one. That's a good sign."-John F. Kilner, president, The Center for Bioethics and Human Dignity
