SynopsisFrom Philosophy to Technology, Tracing the Origin of Identity Politics How did the world arrive at its current, disorienting state of identity politics, and how should the church respond? Historian Carl R. Trueman shows how influences ranging from traditional institutions to technology and pornography moved modern culture toward an era of "expressive individualism." Investigating philosophies from the Romantics, Nietzsche, Marx, Wilde, Freud, and the New Left, he outlines the history of Western thought to the distinctly sexual direction of present-day identity politics and explains the modern implications of these ideas on religion, free speech, and personal identity. For fans of Trueman's The Rise and Triumph of the Modern Self, Strange New World offers a more concise presentation and application of some of the most critical topics of our day. Individuals and groups can work through the book together with the Strange New World Study Guide and Strange New World Video Study, sold separately.

  • How do Christians fit into today's world view and culture?

    This is one of the books I am reading for Colson Fellows program. It is a great snapshot of world view and culture and how Christians fit into today's ever changing morality.

  • How's We Got To This Point

    Scholarly yet readable narrative of how our culture got to the point where Supreme Court nominees are unable to define what a woman is, and not be thought unqualified.
