Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This short book presents a renewed understanding of the Christian religion, based on a new textual analysis of John's Gospel, discovering the previously unnoticed fact that it was written not as biography as with the synoptics, but as a systematic argument for the divinity of Jesus. This makes it the locus classicus-the original authoritative presentation-of the traditional Jewish Christian religion to the philosophical and scientific Hellenistic Gentile world, rendering Christianity eligible to be a worldwide religion. The book was not planned or intended. Its chapters began as separate individual pieces celebrating a series of historical occasions at my church. The discovery about John's Gospel provided an anchor for a continuous treatment, which then required connecting linkages, thus evolving into a coherent book. Our timing now is critical. It is possible that this arrives too late to be of much help, that the decline of our religion is too far gone now in this secular and technologically transforming age. But since we have no need yet to surrender, we offer this as a late arrival for public consideration.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - A re-interpretation and strategic overview of philanthropy-its meaning and values, greatest accomplishments, current transformations, and future directions-based on close analysis of historical sources, and 25 years' practical experience in all aspects of philanthropy. Chapter I: ' Promethean Fire: the Archetype' - from its first coinage in ancient Greece, in Prometheus Bound, philanthropia meant 'the love of humanity', or of what it is to be human, an educational and cultural ideal; Chapter II: ' Philanthropy's Finest Hour: the American Revolution' - the Revolution as philanthropy in action-how Classical philanthropy through voluntary associations produced a 'purportedly philanthropic nation', created by and for philanthropy; Chapter III: ' Philanthropy Yesterday and Today' - how 20th-century growth and professionalization made philanthropy paradigmatic, but neglected Classical values, and how we are now in a paradigm-shift, in which philanthropy is being thoroughly transformed; Chapter IV: ' The Future of Philanthropy' - how the paradigm-shift analysis illuminates issues facing Old Paradigm institutions, and current trends suggesting a probable future; Chapter V: ' Philanthropy Reborn'- how a possible New Paradigm, uniting Classical ideals with Internet-based operations, might benefit donors, grantmakers, philanthropic advisors, trustees, executive directors, scholars, media journalists, teachers and students, as well as civic, religious and political leaders. Appendix I: 'Case Study: the Catalogue for Philanthropy in Massachusetts.' Exemplifies the current paradigm-shift. Appendix II: 'A Taxonomic Tree of Philanthropy' A donor-friendly presentation of how the fields of philanthropy constitute a coherent whole. Appendix III: 'Bibliographical Notes' Suggested further readings.
