"This is a much more philosophic book than "Escape From Reason," which is saying quite a lot, as Schaeffer is a very philosophic writer. This is a good one about the importance of epistemology. Start with his others and come to this one later and you'll probably get more out if it. "

    " I have not read enough Francis Schaeffer and trying to catch up. I used this book to help me prepare a talk on Evidences for the Existence of God. He Is There and He Is Not Silent was exceptionally helpful in developing the epistemological argument. "

    " This is not a book for everyone, however, everyone should understand what is being said. If you are interested in how our culture got where it is, and are wondering what role God plays in it, this book would be good to struggle through. "

    " This book looks at the necessity of God for metaphysics to make sense, and makes the point that the biblical understanding of the Trinity is necessary as a basis for the meaning of human personality. "

    " Great discussion of the Christian worldview and how it makes sense of the knowledge and meaning. I can see why it is so highly regarded. You've got to be interested in reading philosophy to get into it though. "

    " A superb book. Francis Schaeffer demonstrates how Christianity is the only world-view which can account for the three primary questions of philosophy - epistemology, metaphysics, and ethics. "

    " For those of you who haven't heard of Francis Schaeffer, he is one of the most prophetic theologians of the twentieth century. I highly suggest you expose yourself if you are into how secular history, the arts and christian apologetics collide. "

    " A philosophical treatise on the basic questions of life. Not and easy read but highly recommended if you like philosophy and would like a logical proof for christian belief. Schaeffer explores all the problems with modern philosophy and offers the only logical conclusions. "

    " Read for the second time. Really enjoy Schaeffer. His books are very enlightening. In this book we learn more about why the Christian world view answers to big questions in philosophy and in this case "how we know" and how we come to know or the study of epistemology. Very good. "
