The most dangerous ideas are the ones we no longer question. Many of the assumptions shaping our world today began as the bold claims of individual philosophers.
In Eight Ideas that Wrecked the World: How Bad Philosophy Shapes a Broken Culture, Douglas Groothuis examines eight influential philosophical errors and offers insight and correction to the harmful thinking that has taken root in society today.
Tracing consequential missteps through the ideas of some of history's most influential thinkers, Groothuis weaves in autobiographical accounts that bring each abstract philosophical idea to life. Eight Ideas that Wrecked the World is accessible to newcomers yet substantive enough that even seasoned philosophers can find critiques worth pondering. As one of the leading voices in Christian philosophy and apologetics, Groothuis equips readers to recognize flawed thinking and respond with wisdom.
