Health and human flourishing

the long version

"In Health and Human Flourishing, contributors from a wide range of disciplines mine the intersection of the secular and the religious, the medical and the moral, to unearth the ethical and clinical implications of the facets of human existence. Their aim is a richer bioethics, one that takes into account the roles of vulnerability, dignity, integrity, and relationality in human affliction as well as human thriving. Including an examination of how a theological anthropology-a theological understanding of what it means to be a human being-can help us better understand health care, social policy, and science, this powerful anthology will inspire much-needed conversation among philosophers, theologians, and health care professionals.
