  • Meditationsby Gregory Hays; Marcus Aurelius

    Random House Publishing Group 2002; US$ 9.99

    Few ancient works have been as influential as the Meditations of Marcus Aurelius, philosopher and emperor of Rome (A.D. 161–180). A series of spiritual exercises filled with wisdom, practical guidance, and profound understanding of human behavior, it remains one of the greatest works of spiritual and ethical reflection ever written. Marcus’s insights and advice—on everything from living in the world to coping with adversity and interacting with others—have made the Meditations required reading for statesmen and philosophers alike, while generations of ordinary readers have responded to the straightforward intimacy of his style. For anyone who struggles to reconcile the demands of leadership with a concern for personal... more...

  • Otherworld Journeysby Carol Zaleski

    Oxford University Press 1989; US$ 26.00

  • Metaphor, Analogy and the Place of Placesby Carl Vaught

    Baylor University Press 2004; US$ 34.95

    Vaught identifies the place where religion and philosophy meet-and he does so in constant conversation with Augustine, Hegel, Heidegger and Jaspers. Vaught argues that both religious and philosophical discourse assume one of four modes: figurative, analytical, systematic, and analogical. Any real innovation occurs by moving from one mode of discourse to another. Vaught also explores the relationship among ''space,'' ''time,'' and ''place'' as well as ''mystery,'' ''power,'' and ''structure.'' Remarkably, Vaught shows how the category of ''place'' serves as the intersection of both triads. In the end, ''place'' is the orientation that guides the discussions of Being and God, where philosophy and religion are joined. more...

  • The Lamb and the Fuhrerby Ravi Zacharias

    The Doubleday Religious Publishing Group 2009; US$ 9.99

    Destruction and Evil Meet Life and Peace Adolf Hitler spilled the blood of millions for his own sake. Jesus Christ shed his own blood for the sake of millions. Hitler set himself up as a god and the masses succumbed. Jesus Christ was God in the form of lowly man. Hitler created a living hell for the masses. Jesus endured hell to save the masses. Hitler’s name is synonymous with power, evil, and genocide. Jesus’ name with love, peace, and life. Put the two in a room together and you won’t believe your ears. The third compelling book in Ravi Zacharias’ Great Conversations series addresses fundamental issues of life and death, the evil of violence in light of the value of human life, and other tough issues in modern... more...

  • Apocalyptic AIby Robert Geraci

    Oxford University Press, USA 2010; US$ 27.95

    Apocalyptic AI, the hope that we might one day upload our minds into machines or cyberspace and live forever, is a surprisingly wide-spread and influential idea, affecting everything from the world view of online gamers to government research funding and philosophical thought. In Apocalyptic AI, Robert Geraci offers the first serious account of this "cyber-theology" and the people who promote it. Drawing on interviews with roboticists and AI researchers and with devotees of the online game Second Life, among others, Geraci illuminates the ideas of such advocates of Apocalyptic AI as Hans Moravec and Ray Kurzweil. He reveals that the rhetoric of Apocalyptic AI is strikingly similar to that of the apocalyptic traditions of Judaism and... more...

  • Sense and Sensualityby Ravi Zacharias

    The Doubleday Religious Publishing Group 2010; US$ 9.99

    WHY versus WHY NOT?   Why did God place us in a world full of pleasures if we aren’t meant to pursue them all?   In an imaginative dialogue, Oscar Wilde asks Jesus Christ to respond to this question about critical lifestyle choices. Their talk vividly illustrates the arguments for both sensual pleasure-seeking and moral moderation.   Playwright, dramatist, poet, critic—Wilde openly defied the mores of Victorian society. His literary repartee fueled an “if it feels good, do it” humanistic philosophy that is still prevalent in the world today.   SO WHAT does JESUS SAY? From the Trade Paperback edition. more...

  • The Anti-Christby Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche; H. L. Mencken

    The Floating Press 1918; US$ 5.99

    Tangle with one of the most astoundingly vexing minds that the Western philosophical canon has ever produced. In The Anti-Christ, Nietzsche first defined his concept of the will to power, the animating force that he sees as the motivation behind most human behavior. Whether you are a non-believer or a committed Christian, Nietzsche's detailed critique of the Christian ethos is a masterwork of rigorous discourse. more...

It demonstrates how Christianity transformed pagan Roman culture into one that established virtually all the positive aspects of Western civilization. It uniquely discusses Western worldviews as a continuous narrative instead of simply cataloguing them. more...
