The idea of moral courage has become almost unintelligible in a world of moral relativism and in a country whose laws reflect the whims of majorities and the ideologies of courts. Physicians who struggle to express the principles of Natural Law in the practice of medicine do so at real personal risk. This book explores the origins of the crisis and the means for confronting it.
