Recent progress in the life sciences, on the one hand, promises possible cures for genetic diseases; but on the other hand, raises issues about our definitions of life and about being human beings. As Christians standing between these two worlds of the modern scientific enterprise and the tradition of the church, \u003ci\u003eA Christian Response to the Life Sciences\u003c\/i\u003e presents the findings of the Life Sciences Study Group convened by the National Council of Churches of Singapore. This book provides both a basic background to the life sciences, as well as Christian ethical foundations. Other chapters then build on these to deal with cloning, embryonic stem cell research, the human genome project and genetically modified food. The result of group work, these issues are covered both from the scientific view - what it is, what is involved - and the Christian view, how Christian biblical and theological principles guide our understanding of an response to these issues.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN:\u003c\/strong\u003e 978-981-40-4531-5\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 199 by 130 mm (Closed)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNo. of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 128\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eYear Published:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2002\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe National Council of Churches of Singapore (NCCS) is an association of churches and Christian organisations.
