Philosophy needs to be boiled down for me to understand it and this book does just that. Mr. Sproule made everything very understandable. ( ) Dr. Sproul offers up a very concise overview of philosophical streams that have shaped the world. This would be a great book for someone about to start college or take their first philosophy course. For the serious philosophical mind, this book would be too superficial of a treatment to do them much good. As a student who is over a decade removed from a philosophy class, I found it to be a good refresher. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
Sproul's survey of the ongoing impact of history's most influential philosophies urges readers to take prevailing cultural mind-sets seriously...because ideas do have consequences. The greatest thinkers of all time are impacting us still. From public-policy decisions and current laws to world events, theology, the arts, education, and even conversations between friends, history's most influential philosophies have wrought massive consequences on nearly everything we see, think, and do. Thus it is critical for Christians to understand the ideas that are shaping them. The greater their familiarity with the streams of thought that have saturated Western culture through the ages, the greater their ability to influence this culture for Christ. With The Consequences of Ideas, now in paperback, R. C. Sproul expertly leads the way for thoughtful readers. Tracing the contours of Western philosophy from the ancients to the molders of modern and postmodern thought-including Plato, Aquinas, Descartes, Kant, and Freud-Sproul proves that ideas are not just passing fads; they endure for generations to come and demand our serious attention.
