The Existential Moment-Kirk Schneider Reviews the New Book: Toward the Turning
At a time when our identities are increasingly reduced to caricatures and simplistic cycles of polarizing tit-for-tat, EHI board member Scott Gibbs offers a formidable challenge to the way we understand our fractured world. Scott typically authors EHI’s monthly Existential Moment, but this month I am stepping in as a guest contributor to review his passionate, brilliant, and methodical new book, Toward the Turning: Rethinking the meaning of 9/11, the clash of civilizations, and a postmodern world.
