5.0 out of 5 starsMoral wisdom and guidance
By Kara on Aug. 16 2002
Format: Paperback
"Making Choices" is a book I would recommend to any person in any stage of life. The intensity of the content is coupled with the author's clear and candid writing. This book provides concrete information in a manner that's easy to follow, something that isn't always easy to do when speaking of morality. This book holds truths that unlock the path to happiness in this lifetime and following God's will. "Making Choices" clarifies a topic that is often as clear as mud in today's world. The author summarizes, uses analogies and metaphors, and makes moral absolutes and choices a concept simple for all people to learn, not just philosophers or theologians. If put into practice, this book will change lives for the greater good.

5.0 out of 5 starsBlack and White, thank goodness!
By Amazon Customer on April 23 2003
Format: Paperback
Peter Kreeft has written a great little book for all those who are tired of hearing 'it's not so black and white'. Kreeft does an excellent job of explaining, simply and clearly, that right and wrong are objective - regardless of whether or not it is easy or makes someone happy. Kreeft also clears up some moral misconceptions like 'if it doesn't hurt anyone else, then it's ok' and 'the end justifies the means'. Also included in this book is an excellent discussion, scientifically based, on why abortion is objectively wrong (such as the fact that science has always defined a fetus as another human life, science has never been able to come up with a concrete time limit on so-called viability, and that a fetus has a distinct human genetic code that is separate from it's mother's).
While in reading this book Kreeft does spend some time talking about God and his Christian faith, his arguments are philosophically and scientifically sound across the religious spectrum. Regardless of a reader's religion/athiesm, Kreeft's logic applies. While Kreeft argues that morality comes from God, he also demonstrates that one need not know that or believe in God to understand and use objective morals.
This book is highly recommended for all readers who need help with a good strategy for making choices. It would also make an excellent gift for the person in your life who constantly argues that their morality is relative.

5.0 out of 5 starsA great help in understanding how to make moral decisions
By Amazon Customer on June 20 2004
Format: Paperback
Peter Kreeft is my favorite author. His books are always intelligent and thought provoking. This book discusses many issues some of them are; moral absolutes, religion & morality, values, and how to know Gods will .I like the way he sums up his thoughts, and offers helpful ideas, in one chapter he has 12 boxes that morality won't fit in, in another he writes of the most critical issues of our time, he also talks of simplicity and the loss of the sacred in our culture. The 7 principles for knowing Gods will and the 7 power aids of the Holy Spirit were very useful. This is a book I would recommend to anyone wanting to understand how to think more clearly in these times of moral relativism.

4.0 out of 5 starsclarity is power
By A Customer on Feb. 4 2000
Format: Paperback
A very simply written and fun to read book. Like a good teacher, Kreeft has a knack for using just the right analogy to explain a thorny question. Vivid problems vividly pondered. While not an exhaustive philosophical treatise, it's a fine book for most of us common folk, presenting many problems you will face in your daily life.
