Features: Teilhard de Chardin answers these questions with his own philosophical system. His system, in the form of academic theory, reflects the social contradictions that troubled the West in the 20th century and also reflects a philosophical direction aimed at overcoming these contradictions. Therefore, it is worthy of serious study and analysis. As a scientist with religious faith, Teilhard de Chardin sought to imbue scientific research activities with spiritual values consistent with his faith. This effort had both positive and negative aspects, and must be objectively analyzed from the perspective of Marxist theory. We oppose the separation of science and the human spirit, as well as the reduction of science to merely one aspect of religious realms. We firmly believe that science is a crucial part of humanity's great efforts toward self-liberation, but we also believe that human liberation includes liberation from religion. We hope the readers of this collection fully take note of the editor's fundamental perspective. This collection selects 30 essays or excerpts from over 240 works from the 13-volume "Teilhard de Chardin Works Collection" and organizes them into six parts:
1. The Inner World
2. Cosmology and the View of Human History
3. On Science and Technology
4. On Love
5. On Christianity and Other Religions
6. Spiritual Practice.
The main titles of each part are added by the editor, and the selected essays are arranged in chronological order of writing.
