This biography puts a humble man in the spotlight. Known worldwide, Sir John Templeton is a forward-thinking, incisive, and progressive investor, philanthropist, and author. A man dedicated to promoting the moral and spiritual progress of humanity, Sir John believes that the limitless potential of religion needs to be unlocked. Progress in religion is the great goal in his life.Templeton’s commitment to increasing our knowledge of spiritual information inspired the Templeton Prize for Progress in Religion, the Humility Theology Information Center, and the Center of Theological Inquiry at Princeton Seminary. Across the world, Templeton has piloted and inspired the development of foundations, centers, and publications dedicated to spiritual understanding.Herrmann creates a verbal picture of Templeton: the barefoot Tennessee boy who "inherited some rather creative genes," the Yale student and Oxford Rhodes Scholar, the southern gentleman, devoted husband and father, the frugal business man. Readers will learn of Templeton's successful business ideas and practices. Business people, theologians, and scientists will benefit from the Templeton challenge to look beyond the walls created by human ego. This biography of the life of Sir John Templeton is an inspiration for one's own search for meaning and spiritual expression.
