Christian Ethics
Christian Ethics focuses on understanding the relationship between one's ethical self, society's rules, and the consequences of one's actions. It operates from a Judeo-Christian perspective that also takes into account the ethical system of other major world religions. Christian Ethics draws from philosophy, theology, and psychology. It considers the roles of personality development, conscience formation, gender difference, religious values, and social structures in ethical decision making. It probes the questions and dilemmas of good vs. evil, personal vs. communal values, authority vs. conscience, religion vs. society, and civil vs. moral law. Examples and case studies drawn from the fields of social, medical, sexual, business, political, environmental, and personal ethics are used throughout the book and illuminate the process for personal decision making.
The Nramp Family
This book is the first comprehensive volume on the "Nramp family", highlighting the physiological importance of Nramp proteins as metal transporters. The molecular knowledge of these membrane proteins is presented from an evolutionary perspective, considering Nramp cellular function and mechanism of transport in key model organisms. The pathological significance of Nramp genetic polymorphism is discussed with emphasis on metal homeostasis and microbial infection. The chapters were contributed by leading investigators, providing a timely state of the art book in this rapidly growing field. The Nramp Family will be useful to a broad community of scientists interested in metal transport and molecular biology. It will be of interest to the research audience in the broad fields of metal ions and molecular medicine.
Counseling People with Cancer
Few moments are as devastating as when one hears a diagnosis of cancer, and one out of three Americans will hear this diagnosis in their lifetimes. In this book, Jann Aldredge-Clanton brings a perspective from a theology of hope for people struggling with cancer. She believes that in the midst of a frightening illness, our spiritual task is to reunderstand our life story in light of the sacred story of God's love in the world. This book is full of practical insights to enable pastors and pastoral counselors to help persons cope with the diagnosis and experience of cancer. The purpose of the Counseling and Pastoral Theology series is to address clinical issues that arise among particular populations currently neglected in the literature on pastoral care and counseling. This series is committed to enhancing both the theoretical base and the clinical expertise of pastoral caregivers by providing a pastoral theological paradigm that will inform both assessment and intervention with persons in these specific populations.
