Average Rating: 
Rating: - I'd recommend most of Kreeft's writings, but not this one
I am a big fan of Peter Kreeft's; however, this book is not one that I would recommend.
This book is written as an ode to the sea. The writings were more personal--as if written for a journal--than written for the public.
Rating: - I Sea
This little book is a true treasure. I can not recommend it more highly. I read this book in a few hours sitting seaside on Sea Island, Georgia, and must have received a different version then a previous commentator. As is replete in scripture, God loves all things and loathes nothing that he made and preserves all to show his love, so that we may love, by his love.
In response to the comment above regarding references to Tao and other religious/spiritual concepts, remember that Catholics must ... Read More
Rating: - Waves Crashes
I am usually a big fan of Dr. Peter Kreeft, yet this book not only left me flat, it left me baffled at why Kreeft would even write it. Dr. Kreeft is a professor of Philosophy at Boston College and is the author of nearly 60 books. Being a fan, I have read many of them, and this is the first to leave a sour taste in my mouth, or should I say a sour thought in my mind.
It is well known that Kreeft, even at his age, is an avid surfer. In fact it has been said he takes some speaking engagements ... Read More
Rating: - A Return To Sanity
If I were to attempt to summarize this book in one word, it would be simple; not simple as in the way you may assume, but simple as in sublime, pure, and true. This is a work of love, as well as learning. The author, a well known teacher of philosophy, takes us past the conventional and into a world of traditional thought; what you may call the Judeo-Christian world view. Dr. Kreeft turns us to a world view based on signs and symbols instead of measurements and systems. A healthy philosophy of life drawn ... Read More
Rating: - Profound, mysterious, and fantastic
I am a seminary student (Protestant) who owns sixteen books of Dr. Kreeft's. This is his latest, and one of his shortest. It is also the least philosophical and most mystical. It is very different from his other books, but I would bet that it is the book closest to his heart.
My life has been radically enhanced, enriched, and beautified by Dr. Kreeft's books and audio lectures (found on www.peterkreeft.com). He writes and lives to make Christ real, beautiful, and transforming. You will meet ... Read More
