Description:	This book issues an invitation and offers a way to be active rather than passive in the living of one’s life. It is grounded in the claim that as human we all have the potential for conscience, but it remains an untapped capacity unless it is recognised, valued and set in motion towards the richest kind of fulfilment. The book presents a range of moral behaviours and ethical values which have been identified by all the prominent thinkers and philosophers throughout the centuries as leading to human fulfilment. These are placed before the reader often in a question format so the reader can discern whether they are true for him or her. Each chapter concludes with a section on personal reflection which enables the reader to relate the content and claims of the chapter to the truth of his or her conscience and lived experience. The book can be seen as a “hands-on” course in ethics and morality with a goal to assist students to know their true selves; who they genuinely are and want to become as they move into adulthood. Recommended use for this book Senior school students studying the characteristics of an ethical and moral life Teachers of senior secondary students especially for use in Religious Education and the formation of conscience Parents seeking a point of dialogue or discussion with their children on ethical and moral issues
