Title: Religion and public life
Description: "For more than twenty years, Bishop Tom Butler has related religious belief to the public events, both national and global, in regular contributions to BBC Radio 4's Thought for the Day. In this collection, he draws on a selection of Thought for the Day scripts to explore themes ranging from Terrorism and the Gulf Wars to Science, Medical Ethics, Public ethics, and Political Life. He charts the evolving relationship between religion and public life, exploring the Church's role of bringing religious values and insights to bear on topical issues and restating the public's hopes and fears in religious language."--Page [4] of cover.
