It is illustrated with examples from the most controversial aspects of Christian moral doctrine, and a frank account is given of the roots of the upheaval in Roman Catholic moral theology in and after the 1960s. Essential reading for students of theology, ethics, and philosophy. McGivney Lectures. PRAISE FOR THE BOOK: "A very valuable resource for both critics and defenders of traditional moral theology."-- Theological Book Review
