摘要:The Anscombe Bioethics Centre (until 2010, the Linacre Centre for Healthcare Ethics) has just released its first book under its new name. Fertility and Gender addresses issues in marital and sexual ethics, reproductive ethics, the virtue of chastity, population growth, and same-sex attraction. It is quite interdisciplinary, with essays by philosophers, theologians, economists and psychologists. Taken together, these essays map out a fairly tight-knit and coherent family of well-argued positions on a variety of extremely contested issues; as such, the book makes a significant contribution to recent debates.
