1. Christian ethics-History.
2. Christian ethics-Methodist authors.
This new edition contains more extensive discussions of ethics in the twentieth century, including Vatican II, ecumenical social ethics, and Orthodox Christian ethics. A new section. "Christian Ethics in the Third Millennium," looks at the issues we will face in the coming decades, including medical, scientific, and political dilemmas, and issues of terrorism, war, and peace.
"Wagaman does the field of Christian ethics an immense service by bringing his classic introduction right up to Benedict XVI, evangelical environmentalism, womanist ethics and South Africa's Truth and Reconciliation Commission. The results are invaluable both for scholars who want to deepen or contextualize pieces of their repetoire, and for teachers who want assigned authors to come together in a coherent framework."
