Synopsis
In the second volume of the Challenges in Ethics series, Kenneth L. Vaux examines the characteristics of the human quest for life and health. He than traces three roots of technological consciousness: the Hebrew understanding of time enables an understanding of progress and technologicall acceleration; the Greek view of nature shows the parameters of technological possibility; and the Christian grasp of the future offers symbols of desired utopia. With such tools in hand, the reader is invited into conversation.
Designed for adult, Being Well offers several case studies for discussion, primarity borderline cases that are likely to result in informed debate. Guidelines for group use are included. Hour-long sessions for 6-8 weeks.
