Book Description
I wish to thank my daughters: Lynn for her insight and proof reading of my manuscript, and my other daughter Holly Isaacs for her attention to detail and proof reading. If you find any errors, blame them. I also wish to thank several who encouraged me to write this book, especially the Internal Revenue Service who showed me their true nature, (more about that in my next book Kill the Shoeshine Boy) because of them this book became a stress reliever for me. Of the many who supported me in this effort foremost is my friend Charles Ramsey who listened without being critical, assisted with encouragement, and helped mentally and financially. Last but not least I wish to express my gratitude to my wonderful wife, Carol J. Daulton, (also known as CJ) who put up with the late night hours and the time I spent writing and researching this book. Without her, this rock would have crumbled. To the good people of iUniverse Publishing and especially to Sarah Loury; thank you for your great assistance in walking me through the process. Look forward to my next books: Rags to Riches-the Dumb Luck Way and my nonfiction novel, Kill the Shoeshine Boy. Both will be published through iUniverse.

Book Description
The story of the good Samaritan in Luke 10 is one of Jesus's most well-known parables. It continues to fascinate readers with its powerful imagery and ethical significance. In this exposition, New Testament scholar Emerson Powery shows how this classic and beloved text can speak afresh to the life of the church today. Powery explains that in every generation, followers of Jesus need to be reminded that mercy is a natural consequence of faith. Jesus's parable of the good Samaritan emphasizes this point in a dramatic way by placing an "enemy" as the central hero of the story. Powery explores diverse interpretations of the good Samaritan, carefully investigates this parable within the theology of the Gospel of Luke, and connects the parable to contemporary events. The book encourages readers to think through the ethical implications of this story for their own contexts. The Touchstone Texts series addresses key Bible passages, making high-quality biblical scholarship accessible for the church. The series editor is Stephen B. Chapman, Duke Divinity School.

Book Description
This book addresses the law and ethics concerning a pregnant woman's refusal of medical treatment needed by the fetus she carries. In England and some U.S. states a pregnant woman can now refuse such treatment. Nevertheless, courts have acknowledged the residual ethical dilemmas, sometimes adverting to the inappropriateness here of legal compulsion of presumed moral duties. This leaves the impression of an uncomfortable split between the ethics and the law. This study seeks to explain and justify a pregnant woman's legal right to refuse medical treatment and thus resolve, so far as possible, the surrounding ethical, legal and social tensions. The idea of day-to-day maternal conduct which may cause prenatal harm is also touched upon. Innovatively, the author adopts a joint philosophical and legal approach directed to issues both of principle and policy, revealing strong conceptual links between the ethics and the law. In addition to an ethical exploration of the maternal-fetal relationship the author explores the relevant English, American and some Canadian arguments from the law of treatment refusal, abortion, tort and rescue.
