Features: Christianity has a 2,000-year history of intellectual and cultural heritage. It has developed into the religion with the most followers and the greatest social influence, becoming a global religion. This series of books collects important works of prominent Christian scholars since the 20th century, aiming to provide a fundamental reflection on their thought theories and social practices, based on typical analysis and generalization. The author of this volume is a Catholic priest who teaches at a Roman Catholic university. This book is his representative work, the result of his long-term research and teaching in ethical theology. It extensively and deeply introduces the basic concepts and intellectual framework of Christian ethics, systematically discussing the new ideas and perspectives of modern Western ethicists. The book adopts a comparative approach between the internal and external, as well as a historical and contemporary perspective, to provide a thorough explanation of the relationship between Western ethics and Christian faith, and to systematically analyze the theoretical system of Christian ethics. The book is clear in its reasoning, rich in content, and serves as a valuable and comprehensive reference for us to study and understand the spiritual essence of Western morality and its religious ethics.
