"[Alfred the Great's] unique importance in the history of English letters comes from his conviction that a life without knowledge or reflection was unworthy of respect..." Sir Frank Stenton

Postmodern Times
I've just finished reading Gene Veith's excellent book Postmodern Times: A Chrisitan Guide to Contemporary Thought and Culture. It is a must read for anyone seeking to understand the trends, tensions and contradictions within our society. Lay people who want to understand what this thing called postmodernism is all about will find this book both accessible and stimulating. Those who are already familiar with the issues will also benefit from Veith's insights. I highly recommend it.
