Notes: "[By] John A.T. Robinson".; "First published 1970 by SCM Press Ltd".; Includes bibliographical references.; "Ever since it served as a chapter heading in 'Honest to God' 'the new morality' has been a household phrase. For most people it suggests permissiveness -- or worse. But Dr. Robinson was pleading for a criterion of response and responsibility far more searching than that of code morality, as his subsequent lectures 'Christian Morals Today' made clear. These lectures are reprinted in this book, which will take its place alongside his earlier essays 'On Being the Church in the World', now available a Pelican. The theme running through this new collection is the meaning of authentic Christian freedom in relation to the moral and political issues of our contemporary society and to the thinking and structures of the Church". -- back cover.; Contents: Introduction / John A.T.

Notes: "[By] John Eisenberg and Paula Bourne".; Bibliography: p. 107-112; "The Canadian Critical Issues Series has grown out of the Canadian Public Issues Project, which was initiated at the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education early in the summer of 1969. The purpose of the project was to stimulate discussion and reflection about controversial issues in contemporary Canadian society by developing a program focusing on these issues through case studies. .... The books, adapted from these units, are intended to be both provocative and informative. Case studies are followed by questions and analogy situations designed to stimulate reflection and discussion about the broader issues they raise. Additional factual information is included to bring other perspectives to bear on the cases and the problems they represent. Each book concludes with a select bibliography of reference and resources materials in print and on film and tape". -- Preface.; "When does the state have the right to deny the wishes of the individual in issues involving birth, life, and death ? Case studies on euthanasia, religious views and medicine, abortion, compulsory sterilization, and capital punishment provide the basis for consideration of this vital question". -- back cover.; Contents: Preface / John Eisenberg, Malcolm Levin, Editors -- 1. Euthanasia: The Case of Jack Strom -- 2. Religious Views and Medicine: The Dewaal Baby -- 3. Abortion: The Decision of June Jacobson -- The Tragedy of Debbie Wilson -- 4.
