Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

...a treasure-trove of a world-class scholar's reflections of the past couple of decades.

Reseña del editor:

This new collection of essays continues the same theme which Jaki frequently addresses, that of the development of intellectual strategy to protect the worth of the human being in a scientific and technological age. The physicist-theologian brings us face to face with relativism (the only chaos) and steers us clear of two philosophies, 'physicalism, ' in which increased quantification is supposed to bring us nearer to the source of knowledge, and a 'bucolic humanism, ' which decries technology while reaping its benefits. Jaki's analyses are useful examples to students in the disciplines combatting deconstructionism, the new historicism, and cultural relativism. Co-published with the Intercollegiate Studies Institut
