In Complex Simplicity, prominent psychology researcher Dr. Lucian Gideon Conway III addresses the modern atheist attack on the psychological effectiveness of the Christian religion. As an expert in the science of cognitive complexity, Dr. Conway uses scientific research and personal narratives to argue that Christianity is an effective guide for reconciling the many complexities built into the human psyche. Directly contradicting what many modern atheists believe, he shows that, in approaching human psychology from a complex perspective, Christianity meets our complex needs with complex solutions. To Christian believers, he offers psychological reasons to believe their faith yields positive benefits. To skeptics, he offers a challenge to the growing cultural belief that Christianity is both simple-minded and ineffective. Complex Simplicity is important reading for anyone curious about the intersection of Christian teaching and human psychology.
Review :
"Lucian Conway is a respected researcher and careful thinker. His academic work on cognitive complexity has attracted much scholarly attention and has extended our knowledge of cognitive complexity. He looks at issues in new and intriguing ways. Luke's academic research has relevance to not only everyday thinking, but also to issues as broad as prediction of wars and terrorist attacks. This book provides an engaging, fun, yet serious argument for the Christian worldview. Lucian Conway's book takes a new and refreshing perspective on arguments for faith. In the tradition of G.K. Chesterton, Lucian Conway presents his case in an entertaining, yet thought provoking manner."
