Weaving the Tapestry of Moral Judgement by John Harrod

The author invites readers to look at what informs the moral and ethical choices and decisions we make and what kind of people we seek to be. Coming from a distinctly liberal position himself, the author introduces a number of different approaches to making moral decisions and judgements, from different secular and Christian perspectives. In the second half of the book, he focuses on a number of specific ethical issues such as sexuality, the environment and assisted death. Harrod argues that we make moral decisions first and foremost as human beings and do so in a context that is shaped by factors such as different philosophical traditions and other world religions. Written in a witty and engaging style, the author seeks to enable his readers to engage with a wide range of different approaches, and thereby to become competent in developing their own positions.
John Harrod is Principal of Hartley Victoria College within the Manchester Partnership for Theological Education.
