St. John's Christ: The Basis Of Religious Unity

By Griffith Evan Jones

Book Overview

St. John's Christ: The Basis Of Religious Unity is a book written by John B. Cowden. The book explores the idea that Christ, as presented in the Gospel of St. John, can serve as a unifying force for various religious traditions. Cowden argues that the teachings of Christ, as presented in St. John's Gospel, transcend sectarian differences and can be used as a basis for religious unity. The book provides a detailed analysis of the Gospel of St. John, drawing on a range of theological and philosophical traditions to support its arguments. It also explores the implications of this approach for contemporary religious dialogue and practice.

Fabulous In-Depth Intro to Astronomy

I'm an amateur astronomy nut, and have read several dozen books on astronomy, cosmology, etc. This is probably the most clear, in-depth, understandable treatment of astronomical issues that I have ever read.

The best

One of the best done books I've ever seen on a topic - don't know how it could be done any better.

excellent, informative, illuminating

This is a premier text for the fields of astromony and comsmology.

Beginning with the ancient origins of astronomical pursuits, the reader is taken through the unfolding world of space and time. The electromagnetic spectrum, light and optics, telescopes, planet and solar system...

The third...
