And where do we finda remedy?</p><p>In this modern classic, Francis A. Schaeffer traces trends in twentieth-century thought and unpacks how key ideas have shaped our society. Wide-ranging in his analysis, Schaeffer examines philosophy, science, art and popular culture to identify dualism, fragmentation and the decline of reason.</p><p>Schaeffer's work takes on a newfound relevance today in his prescient anticipation of the contemporary postmodern ethos. His critique demonstrates Christianity's promise for a new century, one in as much need as ever of purpose and hope.</p><br><b>Market/Audience</b><ul><li>Apologetics buffs</li><li>CBA readers</li><li>Students</li></ul><br><b>Features and Benefits</b><ul><li>A new edition of an IVP classic.</li><li>Traces the modern trends of the despair of reason and the escape into madness.</li><li>Demonstrates how literature, film, art and music reflect these trends.</li><li>Offers a Christian response that provides meaning and purpose.</li></ul> 142938 1968 Escape from Reason: A Penetrating Analysis of Trends in Modern Thoughts (Ivp Classics) total:135|5:43|4:53|3:27|2:12|1:0| 135 532 221 14 0 1 false false Wed Nov 11 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Wed Nov 11 11:53:36 -0800 2009 Wed Nov 11 11:53:36 -0800 2009
