Human Life

Rarely are human dilemmas out of the news. And what medical science can do and ought to do—or ought not to do—impinges on our personal lives, families and societies. John Wyatt examines the issues surrounding the beginning and end of life against the background of current medical-ethical thought. Writing out of a deep conviction that the Bible's view of our humanness points a way forward, he suggests how Christian healthcare professionals, churches and individuals can respond to today's challenges and opportunities.

Today, many decisions that could be made by human beings from predicting earthquakes to interpreting languages can now be made by computer algorithms with advanced analytic capabilities....Algorithms can better predict human behavior than trained psychologists and with much simpler criteria. Studies continue to show that the algorithms can do a better job than experts in a range of fields. Artificial intelligence is reshaping healthcare, science, engineering and life.

Las palabras que componen esta obra son, indudablemente, implacables burlas e incesantes desdeños hacia los caminos humanos que han suscitado nuestra presente inarmónica relación con la Totalidad de la Vida. Desde tiempos inmemoriales, los intereses de estos caminos han opacado nuestra inocente e inclusiva naturaleza y más bien han engendrado una raza que dedica desesperadamente su fugaz existencia intentando alcanzar esperanzadores ideales como lo son el cielo, el nirvana, el éxito....

With two out of every three Americans overweight or obese, scientists are studying how excess fat changes physical and mental health, demographers are calculating how it's shortening life spans, and economists are debating the impact it has on America's productivity and global competitiveness. But how weight affects intimacy and sexuality is barely discussed. Yet, it's a question of high importance for the tens of millions of Americans who are overweight or obese and having difficulty sexually and romantically.

Where did I come from? Why do I have two arms but just one head? How is my left leg the same size as my right one? Why are the fingerprints of identical twins not identical?
