Hardcover. Zustand: Near Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Good. 1st Edition. 143pp. NAP. Light blue cloth with strong black title lettering on spine. All but the first and last essays were presented in 1961 at a "Consultation" in Louvain, Belgium, sponsored by the World Student Christian Federation and Pax Romana ["an international Catholic movement for intellectual and cultural affairs"]: Margaret Mead, "Introduction", pp. 11-23; Michael Polanyi, "The Scientific Revolution", pp. 25-45; Jean Ladriere, "Faith and the Technician Mentality", pp. 47-76; Bernard Morel, "Science and Technology in God's Design", pp. 77-94; Francois Russo, S.J., "Modern Science and the Christian Faith", pp. 95-107; Jean de la Croix Kaelin, O.P., "Faith and Technology", pp. 109-125; Scott I. Paradise,"Christian Mission and the Technician Mentality in America", pp. 127-143. Church Library bookplate on inside front cover; "Date Due" slip affixed (across top only) to rear flyleaf (only checked out once, due back on Oct. 23, 1966) and book pocket affixed to inside rear cover (NO ink library stamps on or in book). Chiefly Purple dustwrapper not price-clipped ($3.50) with turquoise cross down and across right side of front cover with (dated) illustrations of a molecule, chemistry beakers, atomic bomb blast and rocket blasting off on front cover, title lettering, contributor names, and editor name in white, superimposed on the turquoise cross. Dustwrapper spine toned (all turquoise lettering still eminently readable, not faded); light red liquid stain across top rear cover (3 1/2" x 3/4" area: NOT detectable on inside dw at corresponding location NOR on light blue cloth of rear book cover); 2" closed tear down front cover from top edge, now barely detectable, at 1 1/2" from top left corner, tiny chips at corners and across foot of spine: all transgressions reinforced with Archival tape. Dustwrapper did its job: No rubbing wear or stains on book: Now in Brodart mylar which forgives these sins mightily. "This book deserves careful reading and discussion by adults concerned for the immediate future of Christian thought in America. . . .A familiar question is, 'What are you doing?" We are a nation of doers, activists--technicians on a large or small scale. Personal identity is in terms of being a salesman, stenographer, designer, engineer, trainer, lab technician, assembler, inspector, copy writer, draftsman, economist, or clergyman. In the home, the housewife or husband, "man around the house," is described and evaluated in terms of skills. . . . Curiously and tragically the Church in America has turned its back on the development of technology. . .[S]ince the great depression in the thirties the churches have been more and more on the sidelines, disengaged from the mainstream of American thought, occupied with private life, commonly referred to as pastoral care. This book moves beyond the analysis-paralysis of so many theological and sociological studies of Christian thought in our day, and faces squarely the crucial question of what Christianity means and does not mean in the midst of racing technology. The subject is attacked from quite different positions by both theologians and scientists. The question which each chapter addresses itself to is, "What is the relation between faith and reason in the technician mentality today?" This question is seriously dealt with by each of the writers." (from Editor's Preface, pp. 5f.) Binding strong; corners sharp; Clean text. Solid copy. Lovely artifact from more than 55 years ago.
