HAVE NEVER BEEN MORE FREAKING HYPE FOR A CLASS BRINGING MY POPCORN
READY TO GET ABSOLUTELY ETHICAL HALLELUJAH

I really enjoyed reading this book except that the editing was HORRIBLE.The book was obviously edited by spell checker but not reread by a human. It made it very difficult when reading to suddenly have a word make no sense to the context and have to reread looking for a similar sounding word. For example, "It may contain sequences that in the "fixture" we will realize are crucially important."(should have been future)

Okay, I read most of this. It's an excellent text on bioethics. Although not from a distinctly Christian worldview, I am particularly found of how the author tries to present all sides of a particular issue and has excellent case studies.

I bought this book for my bioethics class and it is so interesting. It is filled with interesting ideas and case studies, even though it is a text book, I just can't put it down!
