Nelson Description: While the book has a primary focus on Christianity––and I write from that perspective—Hinduism and especially Buddhism have also contributed greatly to the psychology and religion dialogue. Thus, major sections of the book also discuss information related to these two traditions. Unfortunately, some other major religions have not been well studied by psychologists, and so there is not a coherent body of dialogue available for discussion. Thus, there is very little discussion of Judaism in this book, and only a modest treatment of Islam. Hopefully, theory and research will progress in the future so that these important religious traditions will have a more central place in the conversation with psychology 2009-01-01T00:00:00Z 192.168.6.56/handle/123456789/76865 Title: Consilience, Truth and the Mind of God Authors: J. Di Rocco, Richard Description: A main premise of this book, upon which the argument presented in the final chapter relies, is that the theory of knowledge is in fact sufficient to support a more definitive and conclusive modified Argument from Truth for the existence of an eternal mind that is possessed by a transcendent, self-sufficient intelligence or mind that is the source of all existence. Along with the development of science, a sophisticated body of philosophical method has been achieved, both during the Classical period of the Greek philosophers and since the time of the Enlightenment. 2018-01-01T00:00:00Z 192.168.6.56/handle/123456789/56855 Title: Teaching Religion and Film Authors: J. Watkins, Gregory Description: Teaching Freud, Jonte-Pace encouraged me to consider doing the same for religion and film. The idea was slow to take hold. I was only starting to understand how to tackle the intersection between religion—that diverse and complicated area of human culture and experience—and the extremely powerful medium of film. But by way of the classroom (and with thanks to my many curious and thoughtful students at Santa Clara and Stanford) I quickly began to see the intellectual and pedagogical promise of bringing religion and film together. Part of that promise comes from the fact that we, as a scholarly community, are just beginning to discover the many ways we can investigate and teach this intersection 2008-01-01T00:00:00Z 192.168.6.56/handle/123456789/56853 Title: Russian Society and the Orthodox Church Authors: Knox, Zoe Description: This book examines the Russian Orthodox Church’s social and political role and its relationship to civil society in postcommunist Russia. It shows how Orthodox prelates, clergy and laity have shaped Russians’ attitudes towards religious and ideological pluralism, which in turn have influenced the ways in which Russians understand civil society, including those ofits features – pluralism and freedom of conscience – that are essential for a functioning democracy. It demonstrates how the non-official church, including nonconformist clergy and lay activists, has contributed to the construction of civil society, while the governing body ofthe Church, the Moscow Patriarchate, has at times impeded the development ofcivil society. 2005-01-01T00:00:00Z
