Summary:
Based on papers delivered at a conference held at Georgetown University in Fall, 1993, The Question of Christian Philosophy Today probes different issues confronting Christian philosophy at the brink of the twenty-first century, from traditionalism to post-modernism. Together with excerpts from the question and answer session, each paper and the concluding round table discussion are here preserved in five distinct sections. The work, taken as a whole, is an exemplar of the meaning and spirit of where we can locate Christian philosophy today, and what we can expect for its future.
