The firms and markets of today's complex socio-economic system developed in a spontaneous process termed evolution, in just the same way as the universe, the solar system, the Earth and all that lives upon it. Darwin's theory of evolution clearly demonstrated that evolution involved increasing organization. As we began to explore the molecular basis of life and its evolution, it became equally clear that it depended on the processing and communication of information. This book develops a consistent theory of evolution in its wider sense, examining the information based laws and forces that drive it. Exploring subjects as diverse as economics and the theories of thermodynamics, the author revisits the paradox of the apparent conflict between the laws of thermodynamics and evolution to arrive at a systems theory, tracing a continuous line of evolving information sets that connect the Big-Bang to the firms and markets of our current socio-economic system. Im Jahr 2003 fand in der Göttinger Jakobikirche eine hochkarätige und deshalb zu Recht viel beachtete Vorlesungsreihe zur Wirkungsgeschichte der Bibel statt. Namhafte Vertreter bester Göttinger Philologie fanden hier ihr Publikum - interessiert, oft gelehrt, aber in seinem Interesse nicht auf eine fachwissenschaftliche Binnendiskussion beschränkt. Diese nun gedruckt vorliegende Vorlesungsreihe ist nicht nur ein Beispiel für das gute Zusammenleben von Universität und Stadt, wie es typisch für Göttingen ist. Sie ist darüberhinaus Beispiel für ein fruchtbares Gespräch zwischen Wissenschaft und Kirche, wie es auch außerhalb der akademischen Theologie möglich und nötig ist.

There is a growing consensus among scholars in different countries about the object of practical theology. Hans van der Ven has contributed much to this consensus through his writings on the foundations of practical theology, the empirical paradigm within practical theology, and specific subdisciplines within practical theology, especially religious education, moral education, church development and ministry. At the center of this growing consensus is an understanding of the independent hermeneutical role of religious experiences and practices of people in the process of theological theory-building. If contemporary religious experiences and practices have a critical role with regard to religious tradition (and the ministry of this tradition), then practical theology cannot just be a form of applied theology. The contributors of this volume focus on this hermeneutical core, foundations of practical theology and on empirical research as a research method within practical theology in the work of Van der Ven.
