Description

Frances Ward explores how traditional Christianity can offer wisdom to a culture focused on individualism and utilitarian thinking. She examines the roots of our human condition, seeking to understand what it means to be fully human in a post-truth world.

The desire for a fulfilling life is a common motivation, regardless of faith or non-faith. To cultivate this, we need habits of the heart that foster joy, thoughtfulness, resourcefulness and truthfulness. This book delves into how we can imagine our humanity differently, leading to happiness as a result.

By examining these ideas, Ward aims to help us become full of character - joyful, thoughtful, resourceful and truthful. Her approach offers a Christian perspective on education for the digital age, seeking to inspire new ways of thinking about our place in the world.
