Charles Malik is an outstanding Lebanese academic and senior United Nations diplomat. With degrees in mathematics and physics from Beirut, Malik studied philosophy under Heidegger at Freiberg and Whitehead at Harvard. Charter member of the United Nations and Chairman of the committee which wrote the International Declaration of Human Rights, Malik has held more senior posts at the UN than any other person, including President of the Security Council and of the General Assembly. He holds more than fifty honourary doctorates and fourteen gold medals from member countries of the UN. In this volume he first considers the place and power of the university as one of the greatest and most distinctive creations of western civilization. He then describes the swerving of the universities from their grounding in Jesus Christ, and assesses the consequences for the Sciences and the Humanities. "Charles Malik is one of the most illustrious academic statesmen of our modern times. ... He is, moreover, a renowned orator. This publication of his lectures ... reflects an impressive contribution of the Pascal Lectures to Christian critical thinking in the twentieth century."--David L. Jeffrey, University of Ottawa, in Crux. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
