throughout the book, to important bioethical cases that have received extensive press coverage over the past decade or so. Intentionally or not, Hall fails to engage with South American, African or Asian authors and realities, a silence which speaks volumes in the context of the project itself. Although The Bioethics of Enhancement is not a work of theology per se, and although we only find passing reference to Paul Ramsey’s contributions to questions of enhancement, Hall’s insights can significantly broaden the discourse of theological bioethics by shifting attention to cultural change. Her novel approach to addressing the “therapy versus enhancement” conundrum through biopolitics and the cultural disability model can lead to deeper theological reflection on the virtues needed to transform society into one that values its most vulnerable members. I look forward to seeing how the conversation that Melinda C. Hall has initiated will continue to shape the moral landscape of bioethics in a rapidly changing world.
