Come Along

Jacinta Respondowska-born in Poland, exiled to Siberia in 1940, a refugee in 1941-42-came to the United States in 1947. A philosopher and an educator, she received her Ph.D. in philosophy from Duquesne University and has been teaching at Alvernia College (now University) since 1972. Since she received the status of Professor Emerita in 2004, she has been devoting most of her time to writing. She was awarded the degree of Doctor of Humane Letters in 2010. Her undertaking is a response to the calls from the learned, coming from around the globe, for a new system in philosophy in light of contemporary knowledge that would reflect reality as a synergistically integrated whole-an interplay of the human, cosmic and Divine. The overriding purpose of the study is to expose the roots of the contemporary crises in the world with the view of reversing the devastating trends to restore the peace, order and harmony for which every human heart craves. The author's life is a superb testimony to that faith which has the power to move mountains; her system of thought, an ingenious way of leading others to the attainment of life's ultimate goal-God.
