Book Overview
Carl Trueman explains modernity to the church, with depth, clarity, and force. The significance of The Rise and Triumph of the Modern Self . . . is hard to overstate.
--Rod Dreher, from the Foreword
Modern culture is obsessed with identity. Since the landmark Obergefell v. Hodges Supreme Court decision in 2015, sexual identity has dominated both public discourse and cultural trends--yet no historical phenomenon is its own cause. From Augustine to Marx, various views and perspectives have contributed to the modern understanding of the self.
In this timely book, Carl Trueman analyzes the development of the sexual revolution as a symptom--rather than the cause--of the human search for identity. Trueman surveys the past, brings clarity to the present, and gives guidance for the future as Christians navigate the culture in humanity's ever-changing quest for identity.

Content aside, Poor Delivery...
Derived From Web , Apr 16, 2021
The book may be great, but the delivery was terrible. The book was ripped with other items and the cover was jammed in. When you pay the extra for a new book, that is not what you want to see. I planned to return it, but it tells me that the return window is closed. Disappointed. ''
