Este libro es el resultado de un esfuerzo de muchas personas a través de muchos años, como señala el autor en su prefacio. En primer término es el trabajo de Herman Dooyeweerd y Dirk Vollenhoven, pioneros en el establecimiento de una filosofía cristiana sistemática entre las dos guerras mundiales. Obviamente ellos dependían de antecesores tales como Pablo mismo, Agustín, Juan Calvino, Groen Van Prinsterer y Abraham Kuyper y una hueste de otros colaboradores. Estas labores fueron refinadas y elaboradas por los mismos autores originales y muchos otros discípulos de ellos en años posteriores.El presente tomo es el resultado de uno de estos esfuerzos por uno de estos discípulos, el Dr. John Kok. Después de una extensa reseña de la historia filosófica del occidente, dada a la luz de la Escritura, el autor nos introduce a la filosofía cosmonómica de Dooyeweerd y Vollenhoven. El estilo es fluido, tocando los puntos principales dentro de un contexto norteamericano, que ha contribuido a más facilidad en la traducción. Con el crecimiento de la aceptación de esta filosofía entre hispanoparlantes, siento que esta obra va a ser una herramienta muy útil, no sólo en la diseminación de esta filosofía, sino también en su comprensión.

There is a refrain in The Greatest Song spoken to "the daughters of Jerusalem." That refrain not only formulates a key theme of the Song of Songs, but also helps mark off different episodes in the narrative about the abduction of a young country woman to the precincts of Solomon's harem. This book is a companion to the SoS.

"Why am I working so hard? What will be the strategy of my company? How do I give direction to my organization?" In times of uncertainty, such questions are all the more important.Ecclesiastes for Managers homes in on professional and philosophical reflections that invite one to look at oneself and one's organization in a different way. They are contemplative, profound texts, which inspire one to find one's own answers to important questions about meaning, spirituality and the art of living in the context of management and organization.Written for managers in profit and non-profit organizations and other professionals who want to challenge themselves with biblical wisdom.

Classroom discipline problems may be reduced through behavior management. But what can be done about the factors that drive misbehavior? Weeds like negativity, apathy, and unkindness are too slippery to be uprooted through consequences or incentive plans alone. A heart-centered classroom climate aims beyond exterminating the bad by striving to grow something more positive in its place. Combining insights from motivational theory, Scripture, and 25 years of classroom experience, Bandstra provides encouragement and advice to teachers who struggle with the attitudes of wayward children. Despite the serious nature of this topic, his narrative style makes the book easy to follow and fun to read.

The Matrix Reformed provides an analysis of both science fiction and the contemporary adoration of technology from a Christian point-of-view, weaving a discussion of issues in religion, philosophy, and ethics in major sci-fi works (e.g., The Matrix, Star Wars, and Star Trek) with the insights and claims of Kierkegaard, Descartes, and Herman Dooyeweerd.
