Publisher's Synopsis
"This book offers an English translation of the 1928 Dutch volume by J. H. Bavinck titled (in English translation) Personality and Worldview. Bavinck provides an Augustinian account of the relationship between the soul, each human's unique personality, and worldview. He argues for the importance of worldview, while also recognizing the dangers of worldview-based thinking gone wrong. Central to Bavinck's argument is that the gospel itself reshapes our personalities and provides us with a worldview that opposes any other worldview developed by man. By probing these philosophical questions, Bavinck helps readers think critically about the forces forming them and about how to live life with intentional thoughtfulness"--.
