Playing God

Description: As advances in technology push back the boundaries of the possible, are we losing sight of the question of whether it is right to do everything that science makes possible? From (premature) birth to (endlessly delayed) death, more and more decisions have to be made. How can Christians find a way through the moral minefield that new technology presents, and how can we talk about these things in a way that helps, rather than browbeats, our friends? *Playing God: Talking About Ethics in Medicine and Technology* begins to help readers think about these questions by engaging with recent films, books and television programmes. A Portuguese translation of this book, *Brincando de Deus*, is available from Brazilian publisher Editora Hagnos (ISBN 9788524303784).
