Abstract:
"This book represents a collaborative effort among Christian and Jewish religious thinkers. They all focus on a bioethical moment at the beginning or the end of life as members of a distinct tradition that has addressed the subject in a formal way. Each one attempts an explanation of that tradition's position on the subject and suggests further developments."--BOOK JACKET.
