  • RHAPSODY AND REDOLENCE
    CAROL SCOTT / CAITLIN SMITH GILSON
    This is a work of doing, of poesis, an enacting philosophy and theology through immediacy. It seeks to call to mind our original interrogative stance in Being, as did the Eleatic poem, the dialogic power of Plato, even Heidegger's indwelling. Should the philosopher want to recover philosophical wonder, then this is the road to be traveled; thought needs raw unmanageable experie...

    R. SCOTT SMITH

What if the institution of science is threatened by its reliance on naturalism? R. Scott Smith argues in a fresh way that we cannot know reality on the basis of naturalism. Moreover,...

  • THE CULTURAL COLD WAR IN WESTERN EUROPE, 1945-60
    KRABBENDAM, HANS / SCOTT-SMITH, GILES

This book provides an important cross-section of case studies that highlight the connections between overt/covert a...

    GILES SCOTT-SMITH
    This book analyses a key episode in the cultural Cold War - the formation of the Congress for Cultural Freedom. Whilst the Congress was established to defend cultural values and freedom of expression in the Cold War Struggle, its close association with the CIA later undermined its claims to intellectual independence or non-political autonomy. By examining the formation of the C...

  • VIRTUE ETHICS AND MORAL KNOWLEDGE
    R. SCOTT SMITH
    We live in a time of moral confusion: many believe there are no overarching moral norms, and we have lost an accepted body of moral knowledge. Alasdair MacIntyre addresses this problem in his much-heralded restatement of Aristotelian and Thomistic virtue ethics; Stanley Hauerwas does so through his highly influential work in Christian ethics. Both recast virtue ethics in light ...

  • SUFFER THE CHILDREN
    GARY SCOTT SMITH / JANE MARIE SMITH
    We all say that we care about children. We all know that millions of children around the world, including in the United States, are suffering physically, materially, and emotionally and are unable to reach their full potential. Moreover, their material deprivation and physical ills often prevent them from responding to the gospel. Most of us conclude that we cannot do anything ...

  • AUTHENTICALLY EMERGENT
    R. SCOTT SMITH
    Are Brian McLaren, Tony Jones, Doug Pagitt, and Rob Bell "yesterday's news," as many evangelicals seem to think? Truth and the New Kind of Christian (2005) tried to provide a balanced assessment of McLaren's and Jones's views. But, they seem to be right about much more that is affecting evangelicals than was realized then. Also, that book misunderstood one of their core claims...
