Inscribed by the author on the fep. The inscription reads To Bruce and Ginny, With deep gratitude for all your friendship and support--especially for your generou…s hospitality at Brookings, without which this book might have been still born. Os Guinness Washington, D.C. 28.x.92 (see p. 445). Presumed inscribed to Bruce K. MacLaury, then President of Brookings. His wife's name was Virginia! Ink underlining noted. Analyzes the cause of the current "moral malaise" and shows how to move beyond today's cultural wars through revitalized commitment to religion. Ian Oswald Guinness (born September 30, 1941) is an English author, theologian and social critic. In the late 1960s, Guinness was a leader at the L'Abri community in Switzerland and, after Oxford, a freelance reporter for the BBC. He wrote his first book, The Dust of Death, in 1973; John Frame called it "a wonderfully erudite and persuasive critique of the western culture of the late 1960s from a thoughtful, balanced Christian perspective." From 1986 to 1989, Guinness served as Executive Director of the Williamsburg Charter Foundation and was the leading drafter of the Williamsburg Charter, a bicentennial clarification and reaffirmation of the religious liberty clauses of the first amendment. He also co-authored the public school curriculum "Living With Our Deepest Differences". Guinness is named after Scottish Baptist evangelist and teacher Oswald Chambers. He has been a Senior Fellow with the EastWest Institute in New York. Derived from a Kirkus review: A heartfelt and perceptive analysis of what Guinness sees as the cultural crisis facing America today. Americans, says Guinness, view their country as much as a sacred creed as a physical placebut this creed, he contends, is dividing the nation much as slavery divided it during the Civil War. The author outlines the breakdown during the 60's of the previous decade's cultural consensus, and the reaction to this breakdownselfishness and unproductive greedduring the 70's and 80's, calling for a reforged covenant, ``a modern form of `federal liberty' that combines the best, and avoids the worst, of the libertarian and communitarian visions.'' Guinness's blend of eruditionhe quotes sources from Paul ValÇry to The Congressional Recordand insight are thought-provoking: He suggests, for instance, that the radicalism of the 60's was not so much a reaction to conservatism as a response to the failure and illusions of mainstream liberalism. Guinness vividly portrays the state of the nation today and projects the future role of religion. His brief prescriptive remarks are gathered under the rubrics of ``remembrance,'' ``repentance,'' ``resolution,'' ``responsibility,'' and ``realism.'' A sophisticated analysis of a very real crisis, and an earnest plea for America to face some home truths. Tom Radcliffe (Author photograph) (illustrator).
