4.0 out of 5 starsSo applicable for today
By Robert Knetsch on November 2, 2000
Format: Paperback
The idea of idolatry needs to be revived in modern culture. In Biblical times, it was golden calves and great phaoroahs. Today it is money, power, technology. His quotation from the Psalms that we become like the idols we worship is so applicable and so true.
Bob Goudzwaard is an excellent, lucid and erudite author who speaks to the heart of this matter. His captivating manner makes this book an easy, though disturbing read. It made me realize how easy it is to be co-opted by our culture that makes power and money the absolute. What is more frighteneing is that it is the subtlety by which this is done.

4.0 out of 5 starsOur solutions intensify the problems they intended to solve
By Con Brio on November 24, 2010
Format: Paperback
Today I took this book for the first time in twenty six years from my shelf. A feeling such as greeting an old friend welled in my heart. The message was ever here with me.

Please let me indulge you with one short quotation:

"For the first time in history most of our problems deteriorate the moment we try to solve them. Our solutions intensify the problems they were intended to solve or create new and more serious problems..." (p.11)
