Though informed by a deep reverence for human life, Jonas's ethics is grounded not in religion but in metaphysics, in a secular doctrine that makes explicit man's duties toward himself, his posterity, and the environment. Jonas offers an assessment of practical goals under present circumstances, ending with a critique of modern utopianism.Country/Region of Manufacture: USGenre: Philosophy & SpiritualitySubtitle: In Search of an Ethics for the Technological AgeItem Height: 23mmItem Length: 15mmItem Width: 2mmItem Weight: 454gBook Series: Emersion: Emergent Village resources for communities of faithRelease Year: 1985 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
