| adam_text | ETHICS AT THE BEGINNING OF LIFE
‘[This book] is a remarkable piece of work.’ Peter J. Leithart, First Things
‘This book says something genuinely new, and provides a welcome intervention
within the context of over-determined and intractable debates about the begin-
ning of live. It deserves to be read carefully by anyone with interests in theological
ethics, phenomenology, continental philosophy and human life.’ Michael Mawson,
Studies in Christian Ethics
‘[A] highly sophisticated book.’ Orion Edgar, Church Times
‘Mumford’s book is not only a very interesting contribution to the debate on the
ethics of the beginning of life, but it is also an excellent example of scholarship on
Continental philosophy.’ Paolo Monti, Universita Cattolica del Sacro Cuore
‘To read his argument with care is to have one’s judgment sharpened and illu-
mined. . . . This is a work of serious philosophical argument, well worth our taking
seriously.’ Gilbert Meilaender, The New Atlantis
Many of the most controversial moral decisions we face hinge upon competing
descriptions of life, and never is this truer than at the beginning of life. James
Mumford draws upon phenomenology (a branch of continental philosophy) to
question the descriptive adequacy, the essential ‘purchase upon reality’, of many
of the approaches, attitudes and arguments which make up beginning of life
ethics today. He argues that many of the most prevalent positions and practices
in our late modern culture have simply failed to take into account the reality of
human emergence, the particular way that new members of our species first
appear in the world.
Historically, phenomenologists have been far more interested in death than in
birth. Mumford therefore first develops his own phenomenological investigation of
human emergence, taking leads and developing approaches from phenomenolo-
gists both French and German, both living and dead. In the second half of the book
phenomenology is applied to ethics, and acute moral questions are divided into
two kinds: first those concerning ‘what’ it is that we are dealing; and, secondly, the
more contextual ‘where’ questions relating to the situation in which the subject is
found.
Although this book primarily constitutes a philosophical rather than a religious
critique of contemporary ethics, with the findings from continental philosophy
being brought to bear upon core convictions of English-speaking ‘liberal’ moral
and political philosophers, Mumford concludes by exploring an alternative theo-
logical basis for human rights which might fill the vacuum created.
James Mumford is Postdoctoral Wolterstorff Fellow at the University of Virginia’s
Institute for Advanced Studies in Culture.
