God, Freedom and Human Dignity: Embracing a God-Centered Identity in a Me-Centered Culture

By Ron Highfield

Book Overview

Ron Highfield traces the genealogy of the modern self from Plato, Descartes and Locke to Charles Taylor's landmark Sources of the Self. What emerges is a stark portrait of the modern ideal of self-governance and the crisis it provokes for a Christian view of human identity, freedom and dignity found in God.
