God and Moral Obligation
ISBN: 9780198715375 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 210 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Is there a connection between religion and morality? Ivan Karamazov, in Dostoevsky's The Brothers Karamazov, famously declares that if God does not exist, then "everything is permitted." Most philosophers reject such a view and hold that moral truths do not depend on God. C.Stephen Evans argues that the truth lies somewhere between these two claims. It is not quite right to say that there would be nothing left of morality if God did not exist, but moral obligations do depend on God ontologically. Such obligations are best understood as God's commands or requirements, communicated to...

Preserving the Person: A Look at the Human Sciences
ISBN: 9781573830263 / Angielski / Miękka / 1985 / 180 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The human quest for self-understanding is ancient. It transcends the boundaries between ordinary folk and philosophers and it over- laps with many academic disciplines, including psychology, sociology, philosophy and theology. Actually, the quest is not essentially academic; it is a human quest, pursued by persons in every age. With this in mind, philosopher C. Stephen Evans takes a look at the human sciences and their contribution to this self-understanding. Evans first presents a basic problem in these sciences today: the attack on the concept of personhood. He reviews the contemporary...

Quantitative Methods in Neuroscience: A Neuroanatomical Approach
ISBN: 9780198505280 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 332 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Stereology is a valuable tool for scientists, allowing them to make 3-D reconstructions of the brain from 2-D data (as usually obtained from PET or MRI scans). Such 3-D reconstructions allow a far greater understanding of brain function. However, in carrying out such reconstructions, often based on limited or incomplete data, there is always a risk of experimenter bias. An important function of stereology is to eliminate bias in the data. With many of the major neuroscience journals now insisting that data be presented in this way, there is a greater need than ever for neuroscientists to...

Passionate Reason: Making Sense of Kierkegaard's Philosophical Fragments
ISBN: 9780253320735 / Angielski / Twarda / 1992 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Johannes Climacus, Soren Kierkegaard's pseudonymous author of Philosophical Fragments, "invents" a religion suspiciously resembling Christianity as an alternative to the assumption that humans possess the Truth within themselves. Through this literary device, Climacus raises in a fresh and audacious way age-old questions about the relation of Christian faith to human reason. Is the idea of a human incarnation of God logically coherent? Is religious faith the product of a voluntary choice? In a comprehensive discussion of one of Kierkegaard's most important books, C. Stephen Evans... Johannes Climacus, Soren Kierkegaard's pseudonymous author of Philosophical Fragments, "invents" a religion suspiciously resembling Christianity as... |

Kierkegaard: An Introduction
ISBN: 9780521877039 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 226 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. C. Stephen Evans provides a clear, readable introduction to Soren Kierkegaard (1813 55) as a philosopher and thinker. His book is organised around Kierkegaard's concept of the three 'stages' or 'spheres' of human existence, which provide both a developmental account of the human self and an understanding of three rival views of human life and its meaning. Evans also discusses such important Kierkegaardian concepts as 'indirect communication', 'truth as subjectivity', and the Incarnation understood as 'the Absolute Paradox'. Although his discussion emphasises the importance of Christianity for...

Kierkegaard on Faith and the Self: Collected Essays
ISBN: 9781602583368 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Kierkegaard on Faith and the Self represents a rich collection of studies that allow Soren Kierkegaard to speak directly to the questions of contemporary readers. Evans analyzes Kierkegaard as a philosopher, his perspectives on faith, reason, and epistemology, his ethics, and Kierkegaard's view of the self. Evans makes a strong case that Kierkegaard has something crucial to say to the Christian church as a philosopher and something equally crucial to say to the philosophical world as a Christian believer. "Kierkegaard on Faith and the Self represents a rich collection of studies that allow Soren Kierkegaard to speak directly to the questions o... |

ISBN: 9780851156620 / Angielski / Miękka / 1998 / 180 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych.

Why Christian Faith Still Makes Sense: A Response to Contemporary Challenges
ISBN: 9780801096600 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 156 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In recent years the Christian faith has been challenged by skeptics, including the New Atheists, who claim that belief in God is simply not reasonable. Here prominent Christian philosopher C. Stephen Evans offers a fresh, contemporary, and nuanced response. He makes the case for belief in a personal God through an exploration of natural -signs, - which open our minds to theistic possibilities and foster belief in the Christian revelation. Evans then discusses why God's self-revelation is both authoritative and authentic. This sophisticated yet accessible book provides a clear account of the...
