Paperback. Condition: Good. Arguing that the prevalence of evil presents a fundamental problem for our secular sensibility, John Kekes develops a conception of character-morality as a response. He shows that the main sources of evil are habitual, unchosen actions produced by our character defects and that we can increase our control over the evil we cause by cultivating a reflective temper.…

Hardback. Condition: Good. We are still surprised by evil. From Auschwitz to the events of September 11, 2001, we have been shocked into recognizing the startling capacity for evil within the human heart. Many who speak unabashedly of evil are dismissed as simplistic, old-fashioned, and out of tune with the realities of modern life. Yet we must have some kind of language to help us understand the pain and suffering at the heart of human experience. In Unspeakable, Os Guinness confronts our inability to understand evil, let alone respond to it effectively, by providing both a lexicon and a strategy for finding a way forward. In this expansive exploration of both the causes of modern evil and solutions for the future, Guinness argues that we must come to terms with our beliefs regarding evil to effectively join the fight against it. Os Guinness is an author and speaker living in the Washington, D.C., area. Born in China during World War II, Guinness left in 1951, after the Chinese Revolution. A graduate of the University of London and Oxford, Guinness is a former visiting fellow of the Brookings Institution. He has written or edited more than twenty books, including The Call, Invitation to the Classics, and Long Journey Home. "Os Guinness has set before us in clear and forceful language what our contemporary intellectual context finds unspeakable: the raw reality of rampant evil. He touches upon the deepest of issues, and, through his incisive analyses, gives us hope of being able to deal with evil in our personal lives and our social settings. A great accomplishment!"- Dallas Willard, Professor of Philosophy, University of Southern California and author of The Divine Conspiracy.…

Paperback. Condition: Good. In this age of anxious preoccupation with cozy feelings, the formidable power of Evil is usually overlooked or trivialized. In FACING EVIL some of the most penetrating communicators of our time turn their attention to the dark side of the human psyche. They speak from the heart about mass murder, racial discrimination, war, and nastiness both personal and institutional. They explore ways to confront Evil and perhaps transform it into Good. In the end they ask: What is to be done? FACING EVIL contains the proceedings of the famous symposium at Salado, Texas, subject of the Bill Moyers PBS special, 'Facing Evil'.…
