BOOK REVIEW - Marriage and Family Life: Issues of Today, Hope for Tomorrow

Philip Osarobu ISANBOR
Abstract

There is always an inseparable interplay of social, physiological, psychological, economic, moral, and spiritual needs of the human person and society in valuing the placements of marriage and family life for the humane and ethical sustainability of the world-created order. This concern for the realization of integral human development situates the trending philosophy and theology of human actions and choices of values in the institutions of marriage and family life. With consciousness for integral human development, we have come to realize that human actions and choices of values determine the kinds of marriage and family life we so desire and eventually contract. We, sometimes, distant or exclude God from and in our actions and choices of values. This is the concern of Francis Ikhianosime's book: Marriage and Family Life. With this book, we understand there is moral and theological order of our world of conflicting developmental ideologies, theories, and principles, simply based on the values of human marriage and family.
