Recensioner i media

'Reading Neil McArthur's textbook on sexual ethics is worthwhile simply because it introduces topics, convictions, and arguments that are still largely absent from official theological discourse. "Sexual ethics is an exciting field". This promising opening sentence of the book draws attention to the fact that numerous social and technological developments in the field of sexuality are triggering new and usually controversial moral debates, often cutting across ethical approaches and socio-political movements. ... This book does what a textbook should: it provides a thematic overview and lays bare the points of discussion and arguments that are essential for an open debate on moral and legal issues.' - Stephan Goertz, Theologische Revue'This book systematically and comprehensively examines the ethical issues surrounding the concept of sex. ... Each chapter is rich in breadth and depth of discussion, especially the chapter on consent, and each has a "Questions for Discussion" section. The book would be ideal as a textbook for courses on sexual ethics. Summing Up: Recommended. Lower-division undergraduates through faculty; professionals; general readers.' - J. A. Kegley, CHOICE
