Updating and expanding a popular classroom text, Miguel A De La Torre opens Christian ethics to the rich diversity found among those who are often excluded from academic and Eurocentric ethical considerations. This is not an attempt to make students aware of some quaint or exotic perspectives particular to the disenfranchised. Rather, this book seeks to help students realise that because the gospel message itself was proclaimed to the marginalised peoples of Judea, the people who occupy the same disenfranchised spaces in our contemporary cultures are the ones who hold the interpretive key to understanding that gospel message. The blinding effects of power and privilege (institutional or not) can be overcome by a justice-based ethics that avails itself of the perspectives and experiences of those on the margins.

Biocentrism takes the reader on a seemingly improbable but ultimately inescapable journey through a foreign universe--our own--from the viewpoints of an acclaimed biologist and a leading astronomer. Switching perspective from physics to biology unlocks the cages in which Western science has unwittingly managed to confine itself. Biocentrism will shatter the reader's ideas of life--time and space, and even death. At the same time it will release us from the dull worldview of life being merely the activity of an admixture of carbon and a few other elements; it suggests the exhilarating possibility that life is fundamentally immortal. The 21st century is predicted to be the Century of Biology, a shift from the previous century dominated by physics. It seems fitting, then, to begin the century by turning the universe outside-in and unifying the foundations of science with a simple idea discovered by one of the leading life-scientists of our age. Biocentrism awakens in readers a new sense of possibility, Doing Christian Ethics from the Margins download epub and is full of so many shocking new perspectives that the reader will never see reality the same way again.
