"Very, very useful in understanding major worldviews--and, of course, what constitutes a worldview. Read it. It was one of my favorite college textbooks."
"This book is outdated and unhelpful. How do you deal with postmodernity without dealing with modernity? How do you pick a western christian worldview over either of those? The categories he deals with exist but his treatment is completely over simplified. Find another book."
