If proof were needed that size does not matter, this slender volume from Conor BarnesMusings at the End of Modernitywould suffice. In only one hundred brief aphorisms, Barnes distills the essential elements of civilization and religion, both East and West, as they developed into the modern age. Modernity, as Barnes shows, has arrived at the dead end of humanistic atheism. In the whiteout blizzard of modern information and thought, Barneslike Ibsens Brandhears the voice proclaiming He is Deus Caritatus.
