About
14 Book Set Includes:
Series Editor: Nate Shannon
Great Thinkers is an academically, biblically, and theologically informed series that explores the seminal thoughts of leading philosophers who have shaped the modern world. Writing from a Reformed perspective, the authors in the series identify the most influential cultural features of each great thinker and the most apologetically effective ways to address these.
Praise for the Great Thinkers Series
“After a long eclipse, intellectual history is back. We are becoming aware, once again, that ideas have consequences. . . . Though succinct, each volume [in this series] is rich, and displays a balance between what Christians ought to value and what they ought to reject. This is one of the happiest publishing events in a long time.”
—William Edgar, Professor of Apologetics, Westminster Theological Seminary
“[These books] set forth accurately the views of the thinkers under consideration, and they enter into constructive dialogue, governed by biblical and Reformed convictions. I look forward to the release of all the books being planned and to the good influence they will have on the next generation of philosophers and theologians.”
—John M. Frame, Professor of Systematic Theology and Philosophy Emeritus, Reformed Theological Seminary, Orlando
