Transcending Vision: Christian Theology in an Age of Empiricism by Don McIntosh

Transcending Vision: Christian Theology in an Age of EmpiricismChristian writer Don McIntosh effectively demonstrates how Christianity is relevant for all people and for all times, despite the modern, scientific and humanist tendency to downplay its eternal truths in Transcending Vision: Christian Theology in an Age of Empiricism.

The author speaks of the opposition of empiricism (that proof must come from experience) and foundationalism (that proof can be, and often is, accepted on faith). Faith, or fideism, is a virtue precisely because it offers no evidence. Jesus did not ask for intellectual understanding. The God of Christianity wants us to vest our hopes in Him, acknowledging that our […]

Searching for My Heart: Essays About Love by Dawn Downey

Searching for My Heart: Essays About Love by Dawn DowneySearching for My Heart: Essays About Love by Dawn Downey is filled with beautiful and personal stories of the different types of love one can encounter in the world, as well as the fight with one’s self to find that place we can call “home.” Following the author on her journey from adolescence to adulthood feels in a way like reading her diary, an intensely personal and honest examination of one person’s journey through life.

Downey’s focus is not necessarily on romantic love, but on the larger concept of love for all things, especially oneself. This is not a book […]

Review: Autonomous Vehicles by C D Leonard

Autonomous Vehicles by C D Leonard

Autonomous Vehicles by C D Leonard is a well-considered, wide-ranging examination of self-driven vehicles and their implications for the economy, ethics, and everyday life.

Indications are that the development of the autonomous car will require further new technologies to improve, protect and finally eliminate the driver. There are six possible levels of autonomous driving, ranging from complete human control, through partial, conditional, high and finally full control by the vehicle. Vehicular control would require the […]

Review: Selling to China by Stanley Chao

Selling to China by Stanley Chao

A Chinese American business expert presents his latest wisdom regarding how small trading companies can establish economic links with counterparts in China in Selling to China: A Guide for Small and Medium-Sized Businesses.

The primary tenet for an SMB (small to medium-sized business) to bear in mind, Chao states, is that Chinese and American entrepreneurs have the same goal – to make money. This is especially true since the older “Mao” generation is phasing out, being replaced with what the author calls the “Me Generation” (age 20-30), which is less traditional, and more prepared to make deals.

When Chao […]
