The Catholic Press Association has awarded a Book Award in the area of faith and science to Christopher Kaczor's A Defense of Dignity: Creating Life, Destroying Life, and Protecting the Rights of Conscience. Grounded in the Catholic intellectual and moral tradition, A Defense of Dignity argues that all human beings from the beginning to the end of their lives should be treated with respect and considers how this belief should be applied in controversial cases.

The Center published Professor Kaczor's book as a part of its Notre Dame Medical Ethics Series with the University of Notre Dame Press.
