Teilhard de Chardin on the Gospels provides readers with an insight into how Teilhard de Chardin approached the Scriptures and made sense of the life and teachings of Jesus Like St Paul Teilhard wrote much about the risen Lord and the mystical body of Christ and very little about the life and teachings of Jesus of Nazareth Nevertheless for Teilhard the mystical Christ has neither meaning nor value in our eyes except as an explanation of the Christ who was born of Mary and who died on the cross Teilhard was acutely aware that no matter how far we are drawn into the divine spaces opened to us by Christian mysticism we never depart from the Jesus of the Gospels With this background Teilhard de Chardin on the Gospels addresses two fundamental questions How do Jesus s words apply to me and to people today and how do the Gospels address and make sense to a culture that is being shaped by science technology and a growing awareness of the universality of evolution

In this provocative contribution to the philosophy of science and mind Paul E Griffiths criticizes contemporary philosophy and psychology of emotion for failing to take in an evolutionary perspective and address current work in neurobiology and cognitive science Reviewing the three current models of emotion Griffiths points out their deficiencies and constructs a basis for future models that pay equal attention to biological fact and conceptual rigorGriffiths has written a work of depth and clarity in an area of murky ambiguity producing a muchneeded standard at the border of science philosophy and psychology As he presents his case offering a forthright critique of past and present theories Griffiths touches on such issues as evolution social construction natural kinds categories corresponding with real distinctions in nature cognition and moods While addressing specialists the book will reward general readers who apply themselves to its remarkably accessible styleLibrary JournalWhat Emotions Really Are makes a strong claim to be one of the best books to have emerged on the subject of human emotionRay Dolan Nature

In Many Worlds renowned scientists in fields from physics to astronomy discuss the possibility of a cosmic evolutionary process that guides not only our universe but other planets and universes as well Physicist and author Paul Davies observes that if it turns out to be the case that the universe is inherently biofriendly then the scientific theological and philosophical implications will be extremely significant Many Worlds first focuses on what lessons might be learned from the latest knowledge of the origin and evolution of life After establishing a wellgrounded relationship between science and religion authors such as Arthur Peacocke and John Leslie evaluate the intricate configuration of events that must occur to create a dynamic and chemically enriched environment capable of not only supporting life but evolutionary processes as well The final section addresses the provocative question of extraterrestrial life What we may find could drastically change our relation to the universe and our creator As we reflect on the possibilities that the universe presents author and contributor Christian de Duve aptly states Many myths have had to be abandoned But mystery remains more profound and beautiful than ever before a reality almost inaccessible to our feeble human means Is our existence part of a divine scheme ingenuously designed to support life or is it an extraordinary chain of accidents that culminate in a lifepermitting environment The scientific advancements of the past century cannot help but capture the imagination and inspire renewed hope for the future This volume will add dimension and insight to these yet unanswered questions

Combining anthropology archeology and evolutionary theory Paul E Minnis develops a model of how tribal societies deal with severe food shortages While focusing on the prehistory of the Rio Mimbres region of New Mexico he provides comparative data from the Fringe Enga of New Guinea the Tikopia of Tikopia Island and the Gwembe Tonga of South Africa Minnis proposes that faced with the threat of food shortages nonstratified societies survive by employing a series of responses that are increasingly effective but also are increasingly costly and demand increasingly larger cooperative efforts The model Minnis develops allows him to infer from evidence of such factors as population size resource productivity and climate change the occurrence of food crises in the past Using the Classic Mimbres society as a test case he summarizes the regional archeological sequence and analyzes the effects of environmental fluctuations on economic and social organization He concludes that the responses of the Mimbres people to their burgeoning population were inadequate to prevent the collapse of the society in the late twelfth century In its illumination of the general issue of responses to food shortages Social Adaptation to Food Stress will interest not only archeologists but also those concerned with current food shortages in the Third World Cultural ecologists and human geographers will be able to derive a wealth of ideas methods and data from Minniss work
