Description:

Moral theologian Paul Scherz uses a theological analysis of risk and reason to suggest ways to enjoy the positive benefits of predictive technologies while constraining their dangers. Instead of dwelling on a future we cannot control, we can use our past experiences and Christian tradition to focus on discerning God's will in the present.

Review Quotes:

[T]his is a book that fully merits careful reading and consideration. It succeeds in doing what too few books on applied theology do, in that it draws deeply both on theology and on the particular issue to produce a new way of thinking about the issue and responding practically.
