Why the call to "Love Thy Body"? To counter a pervasive hostility toward the body and biology that drives today's headline stories.

TRANSGENDERISM: Activists detach gender from biological sex. Is this affirming -- or does it demean the body?

HOMOSEXUALITY: Advocates disconnect sexuality from biological identity as male or female. Is this liberating -- or does it denigrate biology?

ABORTION: Supporters say the fetus is not a person, though it is biologically human. Does this mean equality for women -- or doe sit threaten the intrinsic value of all humans?

EUTHANASIA: Those who lack certain cognitive abilities are said to be human but not persons. Is this compassionate -- or does it ultimately put everyone at risk?

In "Love Thy Body", bestselling author Nancy Pearcey goes beyond politically correct slogans with a riveting expose of the dehumanizing worldview that shapes current watershed moral issues, arguing that a holistic Christian view sustains the dignity of the body and biology. Throughout the book, Percey entrances readers with compassionate stories of people wrestling with hard questions in their own lives - their pain, their struggles, their triumphs.
