Christian Ethics, Volume 2
This edition is once again a new, thoroughly revised version of Christian Ethics II. In some portions the subject matter has been reorganized more organically, and recent theological developments and documents of the magisterium have been integrated. New themes have been added, others further developed, such as deepening the concept and content of mission, as well as ecumenical participation. Also, questions in bioethics have been supplemented, such as the duty to preserve life, topics of prenatal medicine, reproductive and therapeutic cloning, genetic alteration, and euthanasia. Other issues raised concern the discrimination against women, civil marriage of homosexuals, compassion in prison care, the right of asylum, humanitarian interventions, the fostering of peace after conflicts, empowerment of the poor in development projects, and the treatment of animals. The author hopes that this new edition will be a contribution to the ongoing aggiornamento of moral theology and that it will continue to meet the expectations of its readers.
Christian Ethics, Volume 1
This recent edition of Christian Ethics Volume I is a thoroughly revised and updated version of fundamental moral theology. As in the previous editions, the author makes himself an interpreter of the demands of Vatican Council II and its request that moral theology be rooted more fully in Holy Scripture. At the same time account is taken of the new developments in the field of ethics. New issues of actual concern are taken up, such as the deontological and teleological conditions of moral norms, the confrontation between conscience and civil or ecclesiastical law, the communal roots of Christian identity, the requirement of liberty and the ethical compromise. The book addresses itself to all who are interested in the moral teaching of the Christian faith and endeavors to be a helpful instrument to this end.

Formation of Conscience
Since the middle of the 20th Century, discussion about conscience has gained more prominence in theology. It is becoming increasingly clear that conscience plays a very important role both in our lives as Christians and in our lives as members of a given community. It is not uncommon to hear people often say: «I acted according to my conscience», «my conscience is my guide»; «my conscience does not accuse me.» If conscience is to perform the function of a leader and a guide, then it must be formed. Here is the crux of the matter and this is what this book is all about. The importance of the correct formation of conscience cannot be over-emphasised. This means not so much providing answers to moral questions as encouraging the process of arriving at a correct moral decision based on reason and mature judgement. This dissertation delves into the formation of conscience especially within the context of Karl Heinz Peschke's Christian Ethics. The author agrees with Peschke that the correct formation of conscience is in view of realising the ultimate end of man. And the realisation of the ultimate end of man becomes indeed the ultimate purpose of the moral demand.
