Book Description
This book is the first in a series of planned volumes focused on preserving the character of the development of bioethics in particular cultural contexts. As the first of these volumes, Leo Pessini, Christian de Paul de Barchifontaine, and Fernando Lolas Stepke’s work has succeeded well. It has brought together accounts by sch- ars who were crucial to the emergence of bioethics in the Ibero-American cultural domain. This trail-blazing work in the history of bioethics will be of enduring s- nificance. I am deeply in their debt for having shouldered this far from easy task. Bioethics is the product of very particular socio-historical developments. Most prominent among them have been (1) the secularization of the dominant culture of North America, Western Europe, and now Central and South America as well, (2) a deflation of the status and authority of physicians as moral authorities able to guide their own profession, and (3) the salience of a post-traditional animus that gives c- tral place to persons as isolated atomic sources of moral authority. Bioethics initially took shape in North America as a post-Christian, post-professional, post-traditional social movement. This bioethics sought to establish a moral discourse for the public forum, a moral practice able to give practical guidance in hospitals and other insti- tions, and a body of undergirding and justifying theoretical reflections.

Book Description
Los temas de los capAtulos no evaden los diferentes momentos por los que el lector debe pasar a dar razA3n de su fe, como son: el sentido de vida, el pecado, los valores, el matrimonio, el sufrimiento, la esperanza, el celibato, la felicidad. Todo dentro del plan de Dios, su Reino, su presencia, la oraciA3n, la comunidad y en general la espiritualidad cristiana, para llegar hasta el SeA+-or de la vida y de la muerte. Todo esto para terminar como mismo bien lo dice que "Dios es el Ser Creador del Universo, de ti y de mi, de todos nosotros que, al ser puro amor decidiA3 verter lo mejor de su poder creativo en un universo y entregA!rnoslo para que mediante esta vida podamos llegar a realizar todas nuestras esperanzas y finalmente reunirnos todos por siempre en su presencia".

Book Description
Nuestra epoca puede sentirse justamente orgullosa de muchas cosas: asombrosos adelantos de tipo tecnico, prosperidad economica o la creacion de organizaciones internacionales para tratar conjuntamente los problemas mundiales. Estos logros, sin embargo, pueden enmascarar terribles carencias. La legitimidad y la salud moral de una sociedad se miden, ante todo, por su actitud ante los pequenos y los debiles. Y, en ese aspecto, la situacion de nuestro mundo y, en particular, de nuestras sociedades occidentales no podria ser mas desoladora. En todo el mundo, se producen unos 45 millones de abortos provocados al ano, es decir, muchas mas muertes que en las peores guerras de la Historia.

Book Description
This book presents a unique view of the current state of development of bioethics in Latin America. Twelve Latin American thinkers who share a primary interest in bioethics address a vast range of questions, including autonomy, rights, justice, and the role of culture and religion in bioethics. These studies contribute to an understanding of Latin American thought, and they make possible a transcultural dialogue on bioethical issues.
