"Since 1987 On Moral Medicine has been the indispensable anthology
for anyone teaching or studying bioethics. This long-awaited third
edition introduces us to new and urgent topics concerning social
responsibility, embodiment, and vulnerability and engages human
subjects not previously considered: children, people with mental
illness, the aging and elderly, and people with disabilities. . . .
In short, the editors offer us a surfeit of vital and relevant
insights and a worthy companion for those facing the
often-confounding contemporary agenda called medical ethics. David

"On Moral Medicine is quite simply the single most authoritative
sourcebook on Christian medical ethics in the English language
today. Not just recommended -- indispensable!" Amy Laura Hall
-- Duke Divinity School
"This will be the definitive teaching resource for Christian
bioethics and related courses for the next decade. Lysaught and
Kotva are two of the most pedagogically astute and pastorally aware
scholars of their generation. They are as wise as they are smart.
This volume is a gift to those of us who strive for clarity in a
confounding field." Sondra Wheeler
-- Wesley Theological Seminary
"Freshly conceived and organized, with a mix of classic and recent
contributions to the field, On Moral Medicine will remain an
invaluable resource for those who teach and study the practice of
medicine as a testament to our most fundamental commitments."

"The third edition easily lives up to the reputation of On Moral
Medicine as the classic work in the field." Journal of
Interdisciplinary Studies
"Offers many options for a multiplicity of dilemmas. It is
up-to-date even for the twenty-first century. It is also thoroughly
theological, especially for the Christian faith. . . . The book is
highly recommended for the continued development of bioethics and
moral medicine."
