Pluralisms and Horizons

Philosophy

“An extremely lucid discussion of modern pluralism and of the profound and intractable issue it places before Christians — how to hold firmly to their faith while maintaining civil, and even dialogic, relations with those who reject their faith.”

The Making of the New Spirituality

World Religions

“James Herrick's book surveys a variety of spiritual movements subversive of traditional Christianity that often broadcast intoxicating messages of self-improvement and self-deification. . . . Herrick illuminates both the historical origins of these movements and the current scene in which they thrive so abundantly.”

The Paradoxical Vision

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“The Paradoxical Vision is an extraordinarily level-headed and useful book. It provides something that Christians today badly need -- a kind of navigational chart for Christian political thinking, with all of the rocks and shoals, so numerous in present -- day political waters, clearly marked.”

The Right Questions

Apologetics

“In The Right Questions the leader of the intelligent design movement broadens his critique of Darwinism into an attack on numerous well-known social and political attitudes. And he weaves into his polemics an account of a great personaltrial and its impact on his Christian faith. The result is a uniquely provocative and interesting book. Many readers will disagree with the author on one point or another. There are very few, however, who will not find themselves thinking seriously about matters they have not thought about before.”
