Love Does No Harm

by Marie M. Fortune

Book Overview

This work is aimed at those caught somewhere in the middle between those for whom only heterosexual and monogamous marriage, or "anything goes," are paradigms of suitable behaviour and intimate relationships. Ethicist and Christian Marie Fortune explores what it means to be in an intimate relationship today, surrounded as we are by domestic violence and continued silencing of women's voices.

Customer Reviews

An excellent resource.

In dealing with friends and family in harmful relationships, I have found the books of Marie M. Fortune to be very beneficial, well-researched, and easily read by the non-professional. As a religious leader, this book as well as her other material on this subject have helped me aid my patrons in their times of need. She gives clear, step-by-step details and instructions and simplifes a very complex issue well. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to examine the ethics of personal relationships in any form. For a memeber of the clergy or someone who works with people in damaging relationships, this book is a must.
