In this follow-up to his seminal work, The Defense of the Faith, Cornelius Van Til continues to explore “in greater detail the nature and implications of our commitment to Scriptural authority,” articulating a Reformed apologetic harmonious with the Christian faith. Through a dazzling survey of perspectives—the church fathers, Thomas Aquinas, Herman Bavinck, B. B. Warfield, Oliver Buswell, and others—Van Til expresses a vibrantly Reformed epistemology founded on the Word of God. A Christian Theory of Knowledge ranks among Van Til’s foremost works, critical to grasping a Reformed covenantal apologetic. Long out of print, this edition has been completely retypeset and furnished with an introduction and helpful annotations by K. Scott Oliphint.

______________

Cornelius Van Til (1895-1987) was born in the Netherlands. He served as Professor of Apologetics at Westminster Seminary until 1975 and his work in presuppositional apologetics remain a hallmark of that institution. His books enjoy continual reprinting and annotation. K. Scott Oliphint is Professor of Apologetics and Systematics at Westminster Theological Seminary and ordained in the Orthodox Presbyterian Church. He is a regular contributor to Reformation21.org. He received his MAR, ThM, and PhD from Westminster Theological Seminary. He has written numerous journal articles in the field of apologetics and has written several books on the topic.

______________

“Every time I revisit his writings—which is often—I find my conviction re-inforced that Cornelius Van Til is the most important and incisive Reformed thinker of the last hundred years. I’m therefore delighted that Westminster Seminary Press is reissuing A Christian Theory of Knowledge. The book makes for a challenging read, but it is replete with profound and illuminating insights, and Dr. Oliphint’s superb foreword and explanatory notes make it much more acces- sible to readers unfamiliar with Van Til’s thought and the theological principles that undergird his philosophical analyses.” James N. Anderson, Carl W. McMurray Professor of Theology and Philosophy, Reformed Theological Seminary

I went from start to finish on this book and feel more than comfortable with the basics of this platform. If I can do it, so can journalists.

Bugs Within Code
Format: Paperback
The blueprint code where we change the material of the character skeletal mesh has a serious game breaking bug. When the player picks up just ONE of the spheres, the game exits after three seconds despite the fact that there are still two remaining. I followed the code to the letter, even going out of my way to using the exact same engine version as in the book. There are no hints nor tips within the book that offers solutions should any problems arise. Therefore, one would expect the code to be flawless and bug free. At this point, one would be better off seeking free tutorials from elsewhere. The book does not go in depth with anything considered 'advanced' (interactive doors). Very disappointing considering how much one pays for the book.

A Must Have For The Beginner
Format: Kindle
So I've had an the opportunity to spend time with this book and I have to say that I'm very satisfied. Normally when you're reading tech books that claim to be for beginners they assume that you know things and skips steps, but this book doesn't do that. I went from being super intimidated about programming and back end development, but this book eases your mind and makes you feel like you can do anything. And after reading it you start looking at programming in a completely different way. Pros: * Easy to comprehend * Well laid out * The tone of the author is very pleasant and not boring at all * Encourages you to experiment with what you've learned and encourages you to go out explore even further * He makes you feel smart * He makes you feel like you actually have a shot at being a paid developer Cons: * There were a few typos and some missing syntax in a few of the coding examples, but even with that being the case this book is still awesome Once I land a gig here in the next three months it'll be thanks to this book and this amazing author. Thanks =)

A good book for beginners
Format: Paperback
Well I spent about 3 hours reviewing this book last night and I actually think I understood most of it. I still have a long way to go. And I’m not ready to call myself a software engineer any time soon. I think I would need to take about 3 college courses in software engineering and this book would be the first textbook. I would recommend that the index be expanded. I would recommend a book on Python to go with this book.
