What does it mean when we speak of human dignity? What challenges does human dignity confront in our culture today? What is the relationship between contemporary understandings of human dignity and the ancient Christian doctrine of Imago Dei? This book pursues these and related questions in the form of an ecumenical "trialogue" by leading scholars from the three major Christian traditions.
