Description: Building on foundational studies on the relationship of faith and learning, this book presents concrete examples of ways in which a Christian perspective can be brought to bear on scholarship in various academic disciplines. The editors present a typology of various strategies for faith-discipline integration, which are then exemplified by two essays in each of seven disciplines - political science, sociology, psychology, biology, mathematics, the arts, and philosophy. In each discipline a principal essayist addresses a significant issue from a Christian perspective; a respondent then analyzes that essay, suggesting at least one alternative approach.

Brief description: David L. Wolfe was formerly Professor of Philosophy at Gordon College.

Review Quotes: ""This is a major how-to-do-it regarding the integration of faith and learning. ... It could significantly advance efforts at integration among Christian scholars and teachers."" Arthur F. Holmes
