Contemporary Bioethics: Catholic Wisdom for a Confused Culture, the latest book from The National Catholic Bioethics Center (NCBC), provides some key answers and updates in the fascinating and troubling world of bioethics. The book is geared towards people who realize bioethics is increasingly impacting our lives. We all can benefit from knowledge of and good responses to LGBTQ+ demands, genome editing, artificial intelligence, challenges in end-of-life care, etc. The nine short chapters from interdisciplinary authors in the varied fields of medicine, law, theology, and philosophy empower readers to speak to contemporary issues from informed and reasoned positions grounded in the light of truth. We live in an apostolic age, when the moral beliefs of faithful Christians are opposed to those of the dominant culture. It is essential to be prepared to present a countercultural, Catholic vision in science, health care, politics, and everyday life. Catholic bioethics can and should be the conscience of our technological civilization. Readers with an interest in the pressing issues discussed here can go on to be effective witnesses to the moral and ethical teachings of Christ and the Church in their conversations with colleagues, family, and even strangers. We need to be informed and to speak the truth in love in contemporary bioethics. Take the first decisive step by buying this book.
