Moving away from dualistic (mind-body, spirit-flesh, naturalmental) anthropologies, the book's contributors examine human personhood in terms of a complex flesh-body-mind-heart-soul-conscience-reason-spirit spectrum. The Depth of the Human Person begins with a provocative essay on the question ""Why is personhood conceptually difficult?"" It then rises to the challenge of relating theological contributions on the subject to various scientific explorations. Finally, the book turns to contemporary theological-ethical challenges, discussing such subjects as human dignity, embodiment, gender stereotypes, and human personhood at the edges of life.</abstract> <note type="statement of responsibility">Michael Welker</note> <subject> <topic>Religion -- Philosophy</topic> </subject> <subject> <topic>Theological anthropology</topic> </subject> <subject> <topic>Being a man</topic> </subject> <classification authority="ddc">233.5</classification> <classification authority="ddc">W438-M62</classification> <identifier type="isbn">9780802869791</identifier> <identifier type="uri">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/14949/71obehyojwl-sy466.jpg</identifier> <location> <url displayLabel="Cover Image">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/14949/71obehyojwl-sy466.jpg</url> </location> <recordInfo> <recordCreationDate encoding="marc">2024-0</recordCreationDate> <recordChangeDate encoding="iso8601">20260119071425.0</recordChangeDate> </recordInfo> </mods>
