In Morals and Medicine a leading Protestant theologian comes to grips with the problems of conscience raised by new advances in medical science and technology. They arise as issues at the start or making of a life, in preserving its health, and in facing its death. They are the problems of Everyman: some are new problems of conscience, such as artificial insemination; some are old problems in new dimensions, such as euthanasia.

Modern medicine provides such a high degree of control over health and vital processes that men must inevitably shoulder the burden of intelligent decision, and shoulder it as rationally as possible. Thus far, only Roman Catholic moralists have worked out a coherent ethics of medical care. Morals and Medicine is a new and independent analysis of the morals of life and death, striking out along the line of the values of personality rather than of mere physiological life itself. It offers a modern and at the same time Christian concept of right and wrong for all who are involved: the patient, the doctor and nurse, the pastor, and the family and friends.

Originally published in 1954.

在《伦理学与医学》中,一位著名的基督教神学家面对了新医学科学和技术引发的道德难题。这些问题涉及生命开始时的道德问题、维护健康以及面对死亡。这些是凡人共有的问题:一些是新的道德难题,比如人工授精;一些则以新的维度出现,比如安乐死。 现代医学提供了对健康和生呟能力的高度控制,人们必须承担理智的决策,并尽可能理性地做出这种选择。到目前为止,只有天主教伦理学家才制定出了关于医疗护理的一套完整道德体系。《伦理学与医学》是对生命和死亡道德的新分析,它沿着人格价值而非单纯生理生存的价值路线进行。这本书为所有参与其中的人——患者、医生和护士、牧师以及家人和朋友提供了现代且同时又是基督教概念的对错标准。 该书最初出版于1954年。 普林斯顿遗产图书馆利用最新的按需印刷技术,再次使之前已绝版的普林斯顿大学出版社的重要书籍可供读者重新阅读。这些新版保留了原版著作的核心内容,并以耐用的软封和硬皮版本的形式呈现出来。普林斯顿遗产图书馆的目标是大幅增加人们能够获取到的来自1905年以来由普林斯顿大学出版社出版的数以千计珍贵学术作品。 本书最初出版于1954年。
