Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - A guide to epistemology for undergraduate and AS/Baccalaureate level, revealing links between the development of modern science and the theory of knowledge.A comprehensive introduction to the theory of knowledge; this is a story of what it is to be a rational, sentient human being blessed wit…h a mind, confronted with a complex world. Dr Clare Hay approaches this first book on the theory of knowledge as an introduction to the subject, building it up around the debate between rationalism and empiricism, between the thinking of knowledge as a product of thinking about the contents of our own minds, and the knowledge as a product of our interactions with the world around us. Written for the general reader, it is an excellent starting point for undergraduate and A/AS Level study. Structured around a central narrative thread, it also contains further reading and question sections, with worked exam questions, hints and guidance on the AQA exam. This book will be followed by the publication of The Theory of Knowledge and the Rise of Modern Science, a more sophisticated approach to the subject with an emphasis on the interactions between Science and Philosophy from the 17th century to date.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - An introduction to the modern revival of Christian monasticism, focussing on the Community of the Transfiguration in Australia.In the 1930s, German theologian Dietrich Bonhoeffer anticipated the restoration of the Church after the coming Second World War through a new kind of monasticism, a w…ay of life of uncompromising adherence to the Sermon on the Mount in imitation of Christ. Since then, the renewal of Christian monasticism has become a great spiritual movement. Imbued with a love for God and neighbour, and with a healthy self-love, people are going to monasteries to deepen their relationship with God, to pray, and to find peace. While some monastic institutions are suffering a decline in traditional vocations, many Christians are exploring monastic lifestyles. This book introduces The Community of the Transfiguration in Australia, the story of a new monastic community and an inspiring source of hope for the world at another time of spiritual, social, and ecological crisis.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - A highly accessible examination of the contemporary meaning and relevance of the Ten Commandments.The Ten Commandments belong to the 'classics' of Western culture. They are an authoritative part of the Hebrew and the Christian Scriptures. Since they come to us from an ancient past, it is both… necessary and worthwhile to enquire what they may mean for us today.Thorwald Lorenzen contends it is important to hear God's invitation to an alternative lifestyle: 'you shall not kill', 'you shall not commit adultery', 'you shall not covet'. His thoughtful reflections on the commandments for today's tumultuous world begin with the God who 'speaks' ten words to liberate God's people from oppression. Grounded in God's liberating 'yes', the ten words are neither laws nor rules. They are elements for a culture of freedom in which people are invited to celebrate life.Written in plain language, this is a work of immense value to both pastors and laypersons, and an excellent study aid.
