Synopsis

This companion to Elliot Dorff's three books on Jewish ethics--Matters of Life and Death, To Do the Right and the Good, and Love Your Neighbor and Yourself--is designed for group as well as individual study. Through suggested readings from Dorff's books, probing questions, lively discussion topics, and simple writing exercises, readers will be able to analyze and clarify their own positions on a host of controversial issues: sex, surrogate motherhood, adoption, family abuse, responsibilities for charitable giving, the ethics of war, suicide, and euthanasia, and more.
