- The Loss and Recovery of Truth – Selected Writings of Gerhart Niemeyer
This volume provides definitive evidence that Gerhart Niemeyer was a thinker for all seasons. By diagnosing ideology as a spiritual corruption and loss of reality in a way that transcends the immediate controversies to which he attended, Niemeyer's writings serve as an indispensable guide for those following him into the twenty-first century. Niemeyer's personalist recovery of the truth of existence demonstrates that the recovery of order necessitates much more than holding right opinions. Included in this volume are essays on philosophical Christianity and the hospice movement that remind the reader of Plato's view that philosophy is learning to die.John von Heyking, Ph.D.Associate ProfessorDepartment of Political ScienceUniversity of Lethbridge4401 University Drive WestLethbridge, ABT1K 3M4CANADA" />
