| Résumé : |
To students entering a university the academic world often seems one gigantic maze. It's not the map of the campus that's confusing but the geography of the mind— the array of ideologies and life styles, and the academic disciplines themselves.
For students with a Christian commitment the puzzle takes on a dimension of depth as well. How do all these fields of knowledge relate to Christianity? If I'm a Christian, does that affect the way I should study chemistry? Does a Christian perspective further complicate the maze, or does it perhaps bring a bit of order out of the chaos? This book is written by twenty-six scholars and university teachers, each of whom has contributed a chapter relating Christianity to his own academic discipline. The arts, the social sciences, the natural sciences—every major field is brought into focus. The intent? To guide students interested in strengthening their Christian life by developing the dimension of the mind. |
