‘Our Civilizational Moment: The Waning of the West and the War of the Worlds’
By Os GuinnessA civilization reaches a critical point when it loses or abandons its original dynamic of inspiration. Unless these bonds to the past can be reforged, that culture enters into a decline and eventually falls. This book leads us through a history of the West’s long development, reveals the erosion of the foundations, like Christianity and reason, that have long supported it, and asks whether a turning point has come. Guinness leaves readers with hope and solutions to prevent that from happening.
