Traditional theological perspectives on the human person are being challenged by contemporary cultural, political and scientific developments. Bringing together Roman Catholic theologians from different sub-disciplines, this collection of essays engages with and responds to the resulting tensions in theological anthropology, with a special focus on the themes of nature, self and relationality.
