	FRANCIS A. & KOOP, C. EVERETT SCHAEFFER Whatever Happened to the Human Race 1980, Marshall, Morgan & Scott True Hardback in Dust Wrapper (DJ). 10" x 7¾". 212pp. Index. Notes [Today choices are being made that undermine the right to life, the basic human right, this book examines this issue and shows how abortion, infanticide and the threat of euthanasia are growing at an alarming rate. It demonstrates how this destruction of human life is being sanctioned on an ever increasing scale, by the law, by parents and by silent Christians. It exposes how human life has been cheapened, as laws based on God’s standards have been replaced by laws based on man’s standards. Humanism is shown to be bankrupt. The book argues for a return to the high view of man, based on man being made in the image of God. It insists that there must be protest and action in the same way as Christians in the nineteenth century fought for the dignity of man in their battle against slavery. At the same time it emphasises the need for caring, practical alternatives to help, for example, women with unwanted pregnancies.] Condition Very Good+ - in Good DJ.
