Paperback. Condition: Fair. Knowledge, communication, action - These are the concepts central to all of Habermas's thought. As a philosopher, he is concerned with the rational connections of these concepts. As a sociologist, he is prepared to analyze with care the distortions of human interactions caused by existing social and political institutions.  In a series of connected essays, the author assesses the function of the contemporary university, and sharply analyzes contemporary students and their political efforts. He then brilliantly analyzes as a communications model the relationships between research institutes and the political agencies which employ them. The book concludes with a complex discussion of technology and science as an "ideology," dedicated to Herbert Marcuse. Critical parts of Marcuse's thought, Habermas dissects contemporary democratic dialogue and offers an important preliminary sketch of a general theory of social evolution.  He analyzes the difference between the technological sphere of control and the practical sphere of communication and interaction as the basic feature of human social life, and explains how and why the predominance of the technological sphere is the distinguishing and alienating characteristic of advanced industrial society. The concepts of depoliticization and the freeing of communication emerge as the crux of today's political situation.…

Paperback. Condition: Good. Directly, simply, and forcefully, Jurgen Moltmann here presents his reflections on the Spirit and the spiritual life that were the essence of his prior book The Spirit of Life. In this short, accessible work, he combines a deep personal faith with admirable learning and experience.Moltmann views the Holy Spirit as the power of new life, which enlivens body and soul, spirit and mind. In the Holy Spirit we experience the presence of God, community among people, as well as between humans and all created living things on earth.Beginning with his experiences as a prisoner of war, Moltmann anchors his reflections in a theology of life -- and the Spirit as renewer of life -- which ties biblical perspectives to contemporary manifestations, hope to holiness, creation to community, and spirituality to prayer. Moltmann at his best, this little theology stimulates the experience of the Holy Spirit in one's own life.…

Paperback. Condition: Good. Hope and fear are two of the most basic human experiences. It is also possible to see them as more than human experiences, in fact as pointers towards God, and that is the approach adopted by Jurgen Moltmann in his new book. As a further step, he goes on to consider the theology of mystical experience over the long history of the Christian church. These studies are prefaced by perhaps the most interesting account of all: 'Why I am a Christian.' Here one of the best-known theologians of our age describes his life and the development of his theological thinking, and offers a personal confession of faith.…
