Bollore M: God, the Science, the
Evidence

God, the Science, the Evidence

Dirac's Dream tells the story of the quest for the magnetic monopole, the long lost brother of the electron, in Maxwell's four famous equations. The existence of the magnetic monopole, first suggested by the curious asymmetry of Maxwell's equations from over 150 years ago, if confirmed would mark a revolutionary paradigm shift in our understanding of the universe, resounding across the entire field of physics, from electromagnetic theory to cosmology.

Dirac's Dream: The Quest For The Magnetic Monopole

A Time of Loss

Routledge Philosophy of Religion Series

The notion of a soul - an immaterial bearer of consciousness distinct from the body - enjoyed traditional popularity but recently the idea has been questioned, frequently rejected, and sometimes ridiculed. This book argues that the view that persons are immaterial minds capable of surviving death, is in fact a more defensible view than any of its competitors. Moving beyond traditional disputes between mind-body dualists and idealists to focus on what dualists and idealists agree on in opposition to physicalists, Yandell explores the nature of persons according to, and as they occur within, central religious traditions. He concludes that those Christians who have rejected the soul, and opted for the view that the mind is only the more articulate capacities of the body, have exchanged truth for falsehood.

The Soul

"The question antagonism, struggle and dissensus, their place, limits and value for democracy, has divided deliberative from agonistic theories, and remains the main source of the impasse between them. This open access book seeks to break this impasse by going back to their sources in Kant and Nietzsche, and reframes them as philosophers of conflict. For both philosophers, conflict is part of the 'deep structure' of reality at all levels, and their reflections on its constitutive, constructive and destructive potentials raise fundamental questions that democratic theories ill afford to ignore. The eBook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com. Open access was funded by the Dutch Research Council"--

Towards a Philosophy of Conflict

Nietzsche and Kant as Thinkers of Antagonism

Routledge Contemporary Ecclesiology

This book examines the quest for the fundamentals of Christian belief. The attempt to state what is important and distinguish this from what is of lesser importance for faith has been long-standing and controversial. What is often forgotten is that what we believe is deeply connected to how we believe and the company we keep. The need for a more integrated approach to belief and practice is critical especially in our present day when there is so much conflict and misunderstanding about Christian belief and the practices of the community of faith. This book offers an ecclesial reading of the inner logic of Christian faith, bringing church and theology into a closer and more integrated relationship and thus highlighting the ecclesiological significance of Christian faith. Stephen Pickard outlines the history, motivations and purposes of the quest for the fundamentals of belief; the structure of Christian belief (foundations, short formulae of faith, longer narrative discourse); the Trinitarian pattern of belief; the relationship between the Church and its beliefs; the way in which primary beliefs are translated into liturgy, prayer, sacrament and acts of compassion; the unfinished and dynamic nature of Christian belief. Offering a new approach to the fundamentals of Christian belief, and the connection between believing and belonging, this book presents rich insights into the engine room of theology as a continuous and innovative form of Christian discipleship.

Explorations in Practical, Pastoral and Empirical Theology

Theological reflection lies at the heart of practical theology. There is an increasingly robust collection of literature focusing on it. However, little attention has been given to what reflection is or what it looks like when practised 'theologically'. This gap may account for some of the ongoing uncertainty on the part of practitioners of every sort: those engaged in ministry, teachers and students of practical theology, and 'every day' Christians aspiring to make meaning of their experience in a way that is faithful to the Christian tradition. This book provides an exploration of theological reflection from a foundation of adult education in general and experiential learning theory in particular. Reflection as a way of making meaning from experience is integral to experiential learning theory and the book argues that reflection and learning have a symbiotic relationship. Reflection should therefore be understood and its processes examined from this perspective. The early chapters provide the important educational foundations. Literature on theological reflection is then scrutinised through this lens, before the findings of an empirical study are presented which reveal how individuals went about reflecting theologically in an educational context. The analysis of both theory and empirical data allows a range of pointers to emerge about what theological reflection looks like in practice and what features influence the procedures adopted. Two penultimate chapters are provided by academic practitioners who respond to the overall discussion by reflecting on the implications for their practice. The final chapter draws the threads together and indicates how the volume has contributed to practical theology's understanding of theological reflection in general.

Anthem Studies in Wittgenstein

The book investigates Kripke's reading of Wittgenstein presented in his eminent book Wittgenstein on Rules and Private Language(1982). It explores various aspects of Kripke's Wittgenstein's view and explicates key criticisms of it offered by numerous leading philosophers since the 80s.
