New Philosophy Book Offers Christians Readable Introduction to Philosophy Without Anti-Christian Biases
Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) November 13, 2007 -- As a Professor of Theology at a major seminary, Michael J. Vlach wanted to provide Christians with a basic introduction to philosophy that was easy to understand and not tainted by non-Christian biases that often permeate philosophy books. That is why he created "Philosophy 101: The 'Big Idea' for the 101 Most Important People and Concepts in Philosophy." The 192-page book is published by Theological Studies Press in Los Angeles.
"Christians today understand that providing a Christian worldview to a lost world means being aware of the major people and ideas that have influenced how people think," says Vlach, an Assistant Professor of Theology at The Master's Seminary in Sun Valley, California. "That is why 'Philosophy 101' is so helpful. This work targets the 101 most important people and ideas that have influenced our world."
According to Vlach one thing that really distinguishes his Philosophy 101 book is its "Big Idea" summaries at the beginning of each of the 101 entries.
"In addition to the 1-3 page summaries on each topic there is also a 'Big Idea' summary which is a one sentence capsule summary of each topic. These 'Big Idea' statements capture the essence of why that person or topic is so important."
Zach Freeman of Blogger News Network confirms that "Philosophy 101" is a helpful book.
"What Vlach has done with his new publication is take 101 very complicated ideas and give enough information about each one to generate a big picture in the reader's mind, and perhaps spark a curiosity that would lead to further study. At once informative and easy to read, 'Philosophy 101' is a book any philosophy student will find helpful."
While this book is for anyone who wants a basic introduction to philosophy, Vlach is excited about letting Christians know about his book.
"I think Christians are often skeptical of anything that has to do with philosophy," he says. "They often remember non-Christian philosophy instructors and books that put Christianity down. Thus, they are often hesitant about anything that has to do with philosophy.
"With this book, they can know that they are getting the information they need without any biases against their faith," says Vlach. "This really is a helpful book for Christians who are interested in worldview engagement."
