Richard K. Ullmann

Between God and History (eBook, ePUB)

The Human Situation Exemplified in Quaker Thought and Practice

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

First published in 1959, this book was planned as a second contribution towards critique and apologetics of Quakerism. Not losing sight of that intention, the scope of the book widened in the writing. It was hoped that it would make a contribution from the Quaker point of view, to the study of the predicament of Western man.
