Arguably the oldest book in the Bible, the book of Job has a
surprising amount to say about some of the newest scientific
discoveries and controversies. Far from a book that is just about
suffering, Job is filled with rich insight into both ancient and
modern questions about
the formation of the world
the difference between animals and humans
cosmology
dinosaurs and the fossil record
how to care for creation
and more
With careful consideration and exegesis, internationally known
astrophysicist and Christian apologist Hugh Ross adds yet another
compelling argument to the case for the veracity of the biblical
commentary on the history of the universe, Earth, life, and
humanity. "Hidden Treasures in the Book of Job" shows that the
Bible is an accurate predictor of scientific discoveries and a
trustworthy source of scientific information, and that both the
book of Scripture and the book of nature are consistent both
internally and externally.

It's time to leave behind the tired nature-versus-nurture debate.
In Dancing Cockatoos and the Dead Man Test , Marlene Zuk asks a
more fascinating question: How does behaviour evolve, and how is
that process similar-and different-in people and animals? Drawing
from a wealth of research, including her own on insects, she
explores how genes and the environment work together to produce
cockatoos that dance to rock music and ants that heal their injured
companions. She follows the different paths cats and dogs took to
living with humans and asks whether bees are domestic animals. In
exploring intelligence, mating behaviour and fighting disease, Zuk
turns to smart spiders, silent crickets and crafty crows. She shows
how neither our behaviour nor that of other animals is dictated
solely by genes, and that animal behaviour can be remarkably
similar to human behaviour-and wonderfully complicated in its own
right.
Biblicism, an approach to the Bible common among some American
evangelicals, emphasizes together the Bible's exclusive authority,
infallibility, clarity, self-sufficiency, internal consistency,
self-evident meaning, and universal applicability. Acclaimed
sociologist Christian Smith argues that this approach is misguided
and unable to live up to its own claims. If evangelical biblicism
worked as its proponents say it should, there would not be the vast
variety of interpretive differences that biblicists themselves
reach when they actually read and interpret the Bible. Far from
challenging the inspiration and authority of Scripture, Smith
critiques a particular rendering of it, encouraging evangelicals to
seek a more responsible, coherent, and defensible approach to
biblical authority.
This important book has generated lively discussion and debate. The
paperback edition adds a new chapter responding to the conversation
that the cloth edition has sparked.

Olivier Assayas is best known as a filmmaker, yet cinema makes
only a late appearance in this volume. "A Post-May Adolescence" is
an account of a personal formation, an initiation into an
individual vision of the world. It is, equally, a record of
youthful struggle. Assayas' reflective memoir takes the reader from
the massive cultural upheaval of France in May 1968 to the
mid-1990s, when the artist made his first autobiographical film
about his teenage years, "L'Eau froide." The movement of thought
and creation known as Situationism is the golden thread that
connects and, in part, inspires his memoir. This book also includes
two essays by Assayas on the aesthetic and political legacy of Guy
Debord, who played a decisive role in shaping the author's
understanding of the world and his path towards an extremely
personal way of making films. "A Post-May Adolescence" was first
published in French in 2005. Its expanded English edition makes a
valuable companion to the first English-language monograph on
Assayas' body of work, "Olivier Assayas," edited by Kent Jones,
also published by the Austrian Film Museum.

In our post-Christian context, public life has become markedly more
secular and private life infinitely more diverse. Yet many
Christians still rely on cookie-cutter approaches to evangelism and
apologetics. Most of these methods assume that people are open,
interested and needy for spiritual insight when increasingly most
people are not. Our urgent need, then, is the capacity to persuade
to make a convincing case for the gospel to people who are not
interested in it. In his magnum opus, Os Guinness offers a
comprehensive presentation of the art and power of creative
persuasion. Christians have often relied on proclaiming and
preaching, protesting and picketing. But we are strikingly weak in
persuasion the ability to talk to people who are closed to what we
are saying. Actual persuasion requires more than a
one-size-fits-all approach. Guinness notes, "Jesus never spoke to
two people the same way, and neither should we." Following the
tradition of Erasmus, Pascal, G. K. Chesterton, C. S. Lewis,
Malcolm Muggeridge and Peter Berger, Guinness demonstrates how
apologetic persuasion requires both the rational and the
imaginative. Persuasion is subversive, turning the tables on
listeners' assumptions to surprise them with signals of
transcendence and the credibility of the gospel. This book is the
fruit of forty years of thinking, honed in countless talks and
discussions at many of the leading universities and intellectual
centers of the world. Discover afresh the persuasive power of
Christian witness from one of the leading apologists and thinkers
of our era."
