Truth used to be based on reason. No more. What we feel is now the truest source of reality. Despite our obsession with the emotive and the experiential, we still face anxiety, despair, and purposelessness. How did we get here? And where do we find a remedy?
In this modern classic, Francis A. Schaeffer traces trends in 20th-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. 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.

The renaissance man who had hope of humanistic unity.”
And “Christianity has the unity of thought which modern man has despaired of. A unified answer for the whole of life. By renouncing his rationalism he can recover his rationality.” This is just the beginning of the golden nuggets in this book! A must read for an apologetic specialist.
The points in this book can be used like a sword.
