Samenvatting:

Why is it that our sexual mores have changed so much in the past few decades? What are we doing to make our young people more comfortable with these new rules? Why are we so obsessed with occasional sexual missteps by our leaders when we should pay a lot more attention to the Morality of their decision making?Dr. Wolfgang Mack takes a fresh and courageous look at today’s attitudes on human behavior and sexuality in our modern world. Starting with a survey of the historic developments of moral concepts the author takes us on a journey to show how our present day Morality has been been shaped by the huge changes in our life circumstances compared with those of our ancestors: the great increases of life expectancies over the recent decades coupled with advances in medical science, sociology and even theology.
