"This book deserves careful reading and discussion by adults concerned for the immediate future of Christian thought in America. . . .A familiar question is, 'What are you doing?" We are a nation of doers, activists--technicians on a large or small scale. Personal identity is in terms of being a salesman, stenographer, designer, engineer, trainer, lab technician, assembler, inspector, copy writer, draftsman, economist, or clergyman. In the home, the housewife or husband, "man around the house," is described and evaluated in terms of skills. . . . Curiously and tragically the Church in America has turned its back on the development of technology. . .[S]ince the great depression in the thirties the churches have been more and more on the sidelines, disengaged from the mainstream of American thought, occupied with private life, commonly referred to as pastoral care. This book moves beyond the analysis-paralysis of so many theological and sociological studies of Christian thought in our day, and faces squarely the crucial question of what Christianity means and does not mean in the midst of racing technology. The subject is attacked from quite different positions by both theologians and scientists. The question which each chapter addresses itself to is, "What is the relation between faith and reason in the technician mentality today?" This question is seriously dealt with by each of the writers." (from Editor's Preface, pp. 5f.) Binding strong; corners sharp; Clean text. Solid copy. Lovely artifact from more than 55 years ago.

Good binding and cover. Shelf wear. Jacket sunned. Owner's name on title page, else unmarked. "Kept between 1792 and 1804, Faris' diary brings to life all the color and energy of his vibrant community, giving us a view of late 18th century Annapolis unavailable from any other source. You will discover who these people were and follow the course of their lives: their births, marriages, illnesses, deaths, and burials. One can also enter the mind of an 18th century master craftsman, witness the integrity and honesty of business conducted face to face, the hours spent creating intricate clocks and watches, the creation of striking silver pieces. The annotated diary also provides an abundance of genealogical information." - The Maryland Historical Society From the professional library of Dr. Philip D. Morgan, a professor of History at Johns Hopkins University. Morgan specializes in the African-American experience, the history of slavery, the early Caribbean, and the study of the early Atlantic world. Morgan is the author of more than 14 books on Colonial America and African American history. He has won both the Bancroft Prize and the Frederick Douglass Prize for his book Slave Counterpoint: Black Culture in the Eighteenth-Century Chesapeake and Lowcountry (1998).
