Shape of the Good

C. Stephen Layman

Library of Religious Philosophy

An introduction to ethical theory from a Christian perspective, The Shape of the Good examines the connection between moral theory, theology, and metaphysics. It approaches standard ethical theories from the standpoint of Christian theology.

Reviews

“Layman’s book provides an excellent introduction to subjectivism, relativism, and the basic ethical theories, as well as their strengths and weaknesses. Those parts of the book provide an invaluable reference. . . .The book should be a useful one in undergraduate courses.”—Calvin Theological Journal
