To Know the Real Drucker: Eight Articles Will Help You is a collection of eight articles by Peter Drucker: “The Unfashionable Kierkegaard” (1949) and its introduction (1992), “The New World-View” (1957), “From Analysis to Perception: The New World View” (1989), “Reflections of a Social Ecologist” (1992), “What Is a Functioning Society?” (1942), “From Rousseau to Hitler” (1942), “The Human Situation Today” (1957), and “Management as Social Function and Liberal Art” (1989). Readers can find the source of each articles in the table of contents and editor’s note per article. Of the eight articles, only the last one is from Drucker’s works on management. The other seven are from his books on society, politics, and economics. Although the world has hailed him as the “Father of Modern Management,” he considered himself a “social ecologist.” This book will play an indispensable role in explaining the reason for that and in further understanding the foundation of faith and worldview which Druck

A sophisticated and original introduction to the philosophy of quantum mechanics from one of the world’s leading philosophers of physicsIn this book, Tim Maudlin, one of the world’s leading philosophers of physics, offers a sophisticated, original introduction to the philosophy of quantum mechanics. The briefest, clearest, and most refined account of his influential approach to the subject, the book will be invaluable to all students of philosophy and physics.Quantum mechanics holds a unique place in the history of physics. It has produced the most accurate predictions of any scientific theory, but, more astonishing, there has never been any agreement about what the theory implies about physical reality. Maudlin argues that the very term “quantum theory” is a misnomer. A proper physical theory should clearly describe what is there and what it does—yet standard textbooks present quantum mechanics as a predictive recipe in search of a physical theory.In contrast, Maudlin explores three p

人生最大的滿足與喜樂，在於認識創造我們的三一真神，且一生一世，行在祂的旨意中。就是照父神的先見被揀選，藉著聖靈得成聖潔，以致順服耶穌基督，又蒙祂血所灑的人。願恩惠、平安多多地加給你們。（彼前一2）● 三位一體的真神，藉著道成肉身的聖子和內住在每一位信徒生命中的聖靈，向我們啓示祂自己、並救贖我們、使我們真實地進入祂們之間愛的團契。● 每當我們禱告時，已經在經歷與三一真神中每一個位格的相交，藉著聖子來到聖父面前，因著聖靈在我們心中的工作向聖父和聖子傾心吐意。● 當我們誦讀傳統信經，或者唱詩讚美神時，都是在宣告我們對三位一體這一奧祕的認信。作者以深入淺出的筆觸，讓神學生及一般信徒，漸近理解三一真神的奧祕；並從知識、智慧以及生命的角度，融貫教義與真理，得以從容進階門徒生活的靈程。本書可做為：◆ 門徒培訓及主日學進深教材◆ 系統神學之生活化教科書目
