On Behalf of God

"A comprehensive and useful discussion of Christian ethics applied to avariety of difficult and timely issues is no simple task, but Reichenbachand Anderson have risen to it. They have provided a book that is a great starting place for further consideration of topics such as the environment, assisted reproduction, abortion, surrogacy, the human genome, the pursuitof knowledge, the brain-mind issue, and human sexuality. Their treatmentof these issues is integrated by the adoption of a biblically based paradigmfrom Genesis: 'filling, ' 'ruling over, ' and 'caring for.' This is a bookpacked with information, suggestions, and challenges."-Richard Bube, Stanford University"An important book for the Christian community. The authors have rescuedcreation from the polemical battlefield it has become for too many Christiansand have applied God's creation ordinances to some of the pressing practicalissues of our time. Their approach is wide-ranging and novel, getting usaway from the tired debate

This book is part of a series - Studies in a Christian World View - that focuses on the relation of Christianity to the various academic disciplines - philosophy, psychology, economics, the arts, history, literature. The series addresses difficult questions that arise when we bring considerations derived from a specific religious worldview to bear on matters common to both Christians and non-Christians.
