This is an historical survey of 20th Century Roman Catholic Theological Ethics (also known as moral theology).

Esta "conversación con" Marciano Vidal supone un paseo por toda la renovación de la teología moral que trajo consigo el Concilio Vaticano II. Más allá de su trayectoria académica y teológica, así como de las referencias personales a su vocación religiosa y orígenes leoneses, la obra repasa los grandes retos de la moral católica en nuestra época, sin rehuir las cuestiones que se ponen al teólogo de moral. Quien conversa con él, José Manuel Caamaño, es también un reconocido moralista, director de la Cátedra de Ciencia, Tecnología y Religión de ICAI de Comillas. El libro culmina con una mirada a la Iglesia actual y a su futuro, así como con un epílogo o colofón que tiene el atractivo título de "El Credo que da sentido a mi vida". Una obra imprescindible para quien quiera conocer al teólogo y veterano maestro de varias generaciones.

This book proposes to situate the local as a veritable site of empowerment for communities dealing with HIV/AIDS, as it is the ...

La utilización de plantas y alimentos transgénicos ha suscitado recelo y temor en la sociedad por sus posibles peligros ecológicos y bio-sanitarios. Por otro lado, la utilización de animales transgénicos en experimentación también puede plantear problemas éticos importantes. Dada la preocupación de Javier Gafo por los temas bioéticos, no es de extrañar que eligiera este tema para el debate anual de la Cátedra de Bioética.
