Faith conversion experiences are first of all personal before being universal. While biblical history records relatively few conversion encounters as dramatic and as explosive as Saint Paul?s on the road to Damascus, it is not rare for individuals in the throes of a religious conversion to fall prey to intensely agonizing confusion. That is what happened to Martin Jumbam when he marched for peace in his country alongside the charismatic and irrepressible Emeritus Archbishop of Douala in Cameroon, Christian Cardinal Tumi. He joined the prelate as a secular journalist but went back home more than ever conscious of his state as a fallen Christian, the first step in his journey of faith. Since then, all his writing, be it secular or religious, now bears the fruits of that encounter, characterized by intense empathy for the human person. This book recounts the myriad ways Jumbam?s encounters with Christian Cardinal Tumi have activated, nourished and inspired his faith.

Le Score:

Vous aurez remarqué que la fiche de chaque livre contient un nombre baptisé SCORE.

De quoi s'agit-il?

Il s'agit d'une évaluation communautaire de chaque livre calculée sur une échelle de 0 à 100.

Cette évaluation repose sur une agrégation de diverses quantités qui reflètent la vie de chaque livre au sein de la communauté ScholarVox. Cette vie s'exprime en fréquence de lecture, nombre d'étagères publiques, privées, professorales dans lesquelles le livre est présent.

Un calcul "propriétaire" mélangeant ces quantités vous restitue sous la forme synthétique d'un Score l'intelligence collective incorporée dans chaque livre. Ce Score n'est pas une note scolaire, c'est bien plus un indicateur de l'aura collective du livre.

Car, pour paraphraser Robert Parker, expert ès-notation des vins, " ...there can never be any substitute for your own reading palate nor any better education than reading the book yourself."
