    This book fills a gap in the market for a balanced and up-to-date textbook on Christian ethics. It provides a sound and comprehensive grounding in this subject, and includes engaging examples and memorable illustrations. It is ideal for students and for those on ministerial training courses. 'Malcolm Brown providesa clear intellectual groundwork for working in contemporary Christian ethics, which takes in all the main theories and theorists presently influential in the field....More than this, he provides sharp and stimulating discussions of many of the issues that presently do, or should, preoccupy Christians, such as just war, human rights, the market and sexuality.' Professor Stephen Pattison, University of Birmingham 'This is a riveting read. It provides the best way to get up to date with the contemporary debates in Christian ethics. Malcolm Brown is fair, thoughtful and judicious. If you only have time to read one book on Christian ethics this year, this is the one to pick.' Professor Ian Markham, Virginia Theological Seminary
