Synopsis

Turning Points examines pivotal moments in world history where transformative innovations reshaped societies. The book argues that human progress isn't a straight line but a series of leaps spurred by breakthroughs. For instance, the printing press didn't just spread information; it catalyzed social movements and altered political power. Similarly, agriculture's rise allowed for settled communities, leading to specialization and the development of complex civilizations. The book explores how these historical turning points are interconnected, with earlier innovations paving the way for later advancements.

 
Structured to provide a comprehensive analysis, it begins by establishing a framework for understanding innovation as a historical force. Major sections then delve into specific turning points, such as the Renaissance era and the digital revolution, examining their pre-existing conditions, the nature of the innovation itself, and its consequences. The book offers insights into the dynamics of social change, technological advancements, and economic development, making it valuable for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the forces shaping the modern world.

    Independent study programs aren't for the "best" students; they are populated by students at their best. 
     
     
     
    Student disengagement from school is a trending concern, and many schools have turned their attention to independent study programs as a way to nurture student motivation and creativity. But where to begin? 
     
     
     
    Geraldine Woods offers a practical, step-by-step guide based on her experience designing and directing the much-admired independent study program at the Horace Mann School. Under the supervision of teachers, students embark on a remarkable variety of projects and become teachers themselves, conducting seminars with their peers along the way to preparing their final product—which could as easily be an interactive website or musical composition as a research paper. Woods's book details the nuts and bolts of the approach and shows how to customize it for a variety of age groups, budgets, and curricular requirements. It is a gift to all educators—including homeschooling parents—who want to give students the freedom to pursue their interests.

    Politics of Guilt and Pity

    From the foreword by Steve Schlissel: "Rushdoony sounds the clarion call of liberty for all who remain oppressed by Christian leaders who wrongfully lord it over the souls of God's righteous ones... I pray that the entire book will not only instruct you in the method and content of a Biblical worldview, but actually bring you further into the glorious freedom of the children of God. Those who walk in wisdom's ways become immune to the politics of guilt and pity." 
    Man has trampled God's law under foot. In doing so, he has misused himself and trampled on the God-given rights of his fellowman. He is conscious of his guilt, and seeks self-justification through self-atonement. 
    The author makes it perfectly clear that there is only one way of escape from present slough and despair. It is in turning in heartfelt repentance to God who has already provided atonement in the sacrifice of His Son. And true repentance includes a return to the doing of God's will as revealed in God's Word, the Bible.

    At an age when most are aiming for retirement, Bob Higgins moved to Uganda with his wife Carol. Over the course of fourteen years, they trained church leaders with the International School of Ministry video curriculum, provided clean water to rural communities, and ran a mobile clinic while establishing a home for children orphaned by rebel warfare in Northern Uganda. Initially resistant to the idea of taking on the continual care of so many orphans, their Otino Waa Children's Village soon became home to hundreds of children. Bob's retelling of the origins of PATH Ministries shows that God can do extraordinary things through faithful service in difficult places.
