The new book by distinguished professor of Philosophy of Medicine, Herman Tristram Engelhardt, titled "After God, Ethics and Bioethics in the secularization era", presents with great clarity the situation in which Ethics and Bioethics are in the "after God" and godless phase, and exposes his criticisms and proposals. In the midst of contemporary ethical and social dissolution and incoherence, the serious and responsible scientific discourse, which selflessly respects and informs humanity, is an invaluable treasure.

The modern man, relying on the achievements of science and technology and trapped in an illusory worldly immortality, forgets his inner world and exhausts himself in serving his material needs and satisfying his bodily senses. He seeks comfort and individual well-being, although he empirically realizes that in this way he does not find peace and happiness, but sinks deeper into loneliness and disappointment. The abandonment of God as the reference point of his personal and social life kills his spiritual world and paralyzes his social relationships. Man shrinks into his individualism and becomes alienated from his humanity.
