Alister McGrath, a widely acknowledged master of contemporary spirituality, has written a profound meditation on one of the most deceptively simple-sounding tenets of the Christian faith, the centrality of Christ in the life of his followers, in Knowing Christ. Written in an accessible style that will appeal to Christians of all denominations, Knowing Christ aims to stimulate a more direct and intimate relationship between Christ and the reader by engaging not just the intellect but, more important, the heart and imagination. It is a work of spirituality saturated with biblical texts and themes, but it also draws on the rich tradition in art and literature of Christian reflection on the centrality of Christ throughout the ages. The result is a lively, engaging, and always inspiring book of twenty-first century spirituality from one of the world's most popular and respected Christian writers, a book that will strengthen the faith of all who read it.

​This book provides an account of what is to know what things are, focusing on kinds, both natural (such as water) and social (such as marriage). It brings tools from an area that has received much attention in recent years, the epistemology of inquiry. The knowledge of what things are is to be understood as resulting from successful inquiries directed at questions of the form ‘What is x?’, where x stands for a given kind of thing. The book also addresses knowledge-wh in general (which includes knowledge-who and knowledge-where), as well as the phenomenon of ignorance regarding what things are and our obligations in respect to knowing what things are. It also brings to light new avenues of research for those interested in the relation between the knowledge of what things are and concept possession and amelioration. ‘Knowing What Things Are’ should be of interest to researchers in Epistemology, Philosophy of Language, Metaphysics, Philosophy of Mind, Social Philosophy and Linguistics.

Sitting with her legs all wrapped under her, dressed in diver casual, her long blond hair pinned up on the back of her neck, she was every bit a diver. The reader first meets this newest member of a group working in the harbor at Caesarea Maritima. "My friends all call me by my nickname," she introduced herself. "I consider you friends, so you should too. I'm C." Dr. Avnir Raban of Haifa University, in pursuing his life's ambition of proving the existence of an archaeological site known as Strato's Tower, has convened a team of some of the world's finest marine archaeologists exploring the harbor. C has joined her new dive partner in the quest. C, however, has an unusual interest, not shared by Raban or her dive partner--an interest in the Aleppo Codex. The Jewish community of Aleppo, Syria, has maintained the Aleppo Codex, the earliest copy of the Hebrew Bible known to exist, intact for the past five hundred years. Now, the codex, having been recently smuggled into Israel, is missing two hundred pages. Israel wants the pages back.
