Morality and Eros

In the areas of love, work, aggression, sex, marriage, and the family, our technological culture has created an enormous gap between traditional inherited religious values and realistic needs. In a world that some feel to be dovoid of God, sacred dogma no longer provides adequate ethical insights; and intelligent Christians and Jews are seeking more relevant personal values--the new morality. Rubenstein analyzes the new morality in the light of psychoanalysis, radical theology, and the Judeo-Christian tradition, understanding that men and women need a measure of practical-rather than speculative- wisdom.
