Hardcover. 3rd printing. xii, 340 p.; 21 cm. [First printed in 1954] `This project was undertaken at the request of the Committee on Projects and Research of the National Council on Religion in Higher Education. It was felt that there is a very serious need for a single book on Protestantism which could be used in college and university courses in religion, and which would in general make available to intelligent laymen a deepened understanding of Protestant Christianity. It is this need that we have tried to meet.' (p. xi) -- `We are aware of many limitations, for Protetantism is a vast and intricate subject. But in conception and execution, this has been a common venture of the authors. While we divided the work of writing the initial drafts, the final text has been formulated by both of us, and for the whole we assume joint responsibility.' (p. xii) Good orig. black cloth.

Hardcover. Condición: Near Fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Near Fine. 1st Edition. First edition in English, first printing. Originally published in Switzerland in 1954. Nearly fine in smoke-black linen with gilt embossed titles to the spine; in a nearly fine dust jacket with minor nicks to the shelf edges; original $3.95 price still intact to the front inner flap. Hofmann, a member of the faculty of Princeton Theological Seminary, did graduate work at Zurich, studied under Carl Jung, Jean Piaget, and Karl Barth. He also received advanced degrees at the Sorbonne in Paris where he became a colleague with Jean-Paul Sartre, Simone De Beauvoir, and Gabriel Marcel, gaining insights into existential philosophy. In this insightful and searching interpretation of Niebuhr's thought, Hofmann demonstrates a unity between a vision of modern society, human existence, and politics, and the principle ideas of Christianity. Niebuhr composed the serenity prayer recited by AA members, developed a philosophical perspective known as Christian realism, developed a philosophical perspective known as political realism, was one of the most respected American public intellectual, was dubbed 'the most influential theologian of the 20th century', and was awarded the Presidential Medal Of Freedom. Niebuhr's book NATURE AND DESTINY OF MAN is considered to be one of the best non-fiction books of the twentieth century. Nice and presentable. Octavo; 269 pages; notes; bibliography; index.

Hardcover. Condición: Very Good+. Very Good+ dj. First Edition. [solid copy, mild shelfwear, bottom corners very slightly bumped; the jacket is mildly edgeworn, with a tiny bit of paper loss at the top of the spine, minor soiling to the rear panel]. A family saga about "the Aroians, a little Armenian family settled near Boston." (The geographical details in the book mark the setting as Revere, Massachusetts.) Simone 4: "Told from the point of view of the youngest son of the Aroian family, this is the story of their depressing home life, dominated by a cold and unforgiving mother who refuses to sanction the marriage of her children to non-Armenians and never relents after they go against her wishes." The author himself (surprise!) was of Armenian heritage, and grew up in Massachusetts; this was the last of his three published novels, all of which drew on his background. ***This book is among the nearly 150 items offered in ReadInk's new Catalog Number 4, "Booking Passage: Books on the Immigrant Experience."
