Eye of the Heart

the long version

"What is the role of feelings in the euthanasia debate? This is the central question William F. Sullivan asks in Eye of the Heart, a unique philosophical and ethical exploration of the euthanasia issue. Employing the principles and techniques of the Canadian theologian and thinker Bernard Lonergan, Sullivan offers a concrete examination of the role of feelings in grasping moral values and the important part that feelings play in ethical decision- making. The heart has its reasons, he argues, which bioethicists, philosophers and legal scholars all need to know."--Jacket.
