Connected Lives(English, Paperback, Groenhout Ruth E.) is written by Groenhout Ruth E. and published by Bloomsbury Publishing Plc. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 0742514978 (ISBN 10) and 9780742514973 (ISBN 13).

Connected Lives examines the account of human nature that is implicit in an ethics of care, a picture of human lives that emphasizes interdependency, embodiment, and social connectedness. The book makes important connections to the picture of human life found in theorists of love such as St. Augustine and Emmanuel Levinas, and shows that when care theory is articulated clearly, it provides resources for thinking through some of the difficult moral issues we face in the contemporary world, issues such as assisted reproduction and the new genetic technologies.
