"This book deserves careful reading and discussion by adults concerned for the immediate future of Christian thought in America. . . .A familiar question is, 'What are you doing?" We are a nation of doers, activists--technicians on a large or small scale. Personal identity is in terms of being a salesman, stenographer, designer, engineer, trainer, lab technician, assembler, inspector, copy writer, draftsman, economist, or clergyman. In the home, the housewife or husband, "man around the house," is described and evaluated in terms of skills. . . . Curiously and tragically the Church in America has turned its back on the development of technology. . .[S]ince the great depression in the thirties the churches have been more and more on the sidelines, disengaged from the mainstream of American thought, occupied with private life, commonly referred to as pastoral care. This book moves beyond the analysis-paralysis of so many theological and sociological studies of Christian thought in our day, and faces squarely the crucial question of what Christianity means and does not mean in the midst of racing technology. The subject is attacked from quite different positions by both theologians and scientists. The question which each chapter addresses itself to is, "What is the relation between faith and reason in the technician mentality today?" This question is seriously dealt with by each of the writers." (from Editor's Preface, pp. 5f.) Binding strong; corners sharp; Clean text. Solid copy. Lovely artifact from more than 55 years ago.…
