The Spiritual Crisis of the Scientific Age: Sir Halley Stewart Trust: Publications

Autor G. D. Yarnold
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 15 noi 2024
First published in 1959, the original blurb reads: “No good purpose is served today by treating the relationship between Christianity and the natural sciences as a conflict; even as a conflict to be resolved. The modern world is passing through a crisis of far-reaching proportions; which is the direct consequence of its inability to assimilate new scientific knowledge, and to direct rightly the new technical skills. The crisis, which is essentially spiritual in character, is examined in its three principal aspects. Accordingly, the first part of the book deals with our understanding of the order of nature; the second with some of the central doctrines of the Christian faith; and the final section with the pressing ethical and moral problems of the industrial and nuclear age.” Today it can be read and enjoyed in its historical context.
This book is a re-issue originally published in 1959. The language used and views portrayed are a reflection of its era and no offence is meant by the Publishers to any reader by this re-publication.
