Críticas:
"This is a book of reason and tolerance but also of indignation. The former President draws on his religious faith to comment wisely on a wide range of 'hot button' issues. Although Carter's tone is patient and explanatory, his views are bound to be newsworthy and should rekindle some old fires...an eloquent personal testament that deserves a wide readership, regardless of political affiliation. Highly recommended."-- "Library Journal" "Carter offers an unusual combination: a man of faith and a man of power...By adding his own voice to the discussion, Carter reminds us of a time when religion was tied to such virtues as humility and such practices as soul-searching...he is undoubtedly one of our finest human beings."-- Alan Wolfe, "The Washington Post Book World" "Carter speaks eloquently of how his own faith has shaped his moral vision...makes resonant connections between religion and political activism..."-- "Publishers Weekly" .,."Carter's overarching decency, his care for the human condition and the health of planet Earth shines through."-- "Kirkus" ""Our Endangered Values" cannot be safely ignored."-- "The Wall Street Journal" ..."Carter's overarching decency, his care for the human condition and the health of planet Earth shines through." -- "Kirkus"
Reseña del editor:
In OUR ENDANGERED VALUES, Jimmy Carter describes quite personally his own involvement and reactions to some disturbing societal trends that have taken place during the past few years. These changes involve both the religious and the political worlds as they have increasingly become intertwined, and include some of the most crucial and controversial issues of the day - frequently encapsulated under 'moral values'. Many of these matters are under fierce debate, and include pre-emptive war, women's rights, terrorism, civil liberties, homosexuality, abortion, the death penalty, science and religion, environmental degradation, nuclear arsenals, America's global image, fundamentalism, and the welding of religion and politics. Carter, sustained by his own lifelong faith, assesses these issues in a forceful and unequivocal, but balanced and courageous way. OUR ENDANGERED VALUES is a book that his millions of readers have eagerly awaited.

Descripción Hardcover. Condición: New. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Very Good. 1st Edition. In this book, Carter offers a personal consideration of "moral values" as they relate to the important issues of the day. He puts forward a passionate defense of separation of church and state, and a strong warning of where the country is heading as the lines between politics and rigid religious fundamentalism are blurred. Now, he describes his own involvement and reactions to some disturbing societal trends that have taken place during the last few years. These changes involve both the religious and the political worlds as they have increasingly become inter-twined, and include some of the most crucial and controversial issues of the day--frequently encapsulated under "moral values." Many of these matters are under fierce debate. They include preemptive war, women's rights, terrorism, civil liberties, homosexuality, abortion, the death penalty, science and religion, environmental degradation, nuclear arsenals. America's global image, fundamentalism, and the melding of religion and politics. This book has rough deckled page edges. The book is in new condition but the book jacket has some shelf wear.

Descripción Hardcover. Condición: New. Estado de la sobrecubierta: New. First Edition, 11th Printing. BRAND NEW COPY. Post-presidential work of James Earl "Jimmy" Carter, Jr. (1924 -) 39th President of the United States (1977 - 1981) and recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize (2002). Philosophical concerns over discernible societal trends in America and the orientation of political leadership. 17 chapters. The President makes clear his personal persuasion as an evangelical Christian less "fundamentalists" leanings and absolute support for separation church and state, quoting extensively from Thomas Jefferson, and humanistic concerns of women's rights, support for the poor, and repudiation of the death penalty. These prefatory remarks leads ng to the disturbing shift in foreign policy evidence after Sept 11th, 2001 --- a move away from diplomacy to preemptive warfare, marking America's loss of moral leadership and, with it, respect among nations. Last sector addresses the equally apparent redistribution of wealth that is taking place --- America's poor are getting poorer, the rich are milking the middle class and becoming richer yet; government spending curtailed by massive tax cuts for the wealthy and large corporations, at the expense of rising international debt.
