aideia Press has actually been in existence for over twenty five years but has been inactive of recent years. At the height of its operation Paideia published over 400 titles and distributed books worldwide. The Reformational Publishing Project has repristinated the Paideia imprint as the publishing arm of its operation. All books that are either translated and/or produced by the RPP will bear the Paideia imprint. Hence, all the titles listed in the HOME PAGE above will be published with the Paideia imprint with an appropriate acknowledgment on the verso of each book indicating that it is produced by the RPP.

It is the policy of the Reformational Publishing Project and Paideia Press to first publish a hard copy of a given title and then, at an appropriate stage, republish the item in all the standard digital forms, DVD, PDF, and the such like. At this stage the complete digital file (RTF & PDF) of the item will of course be available on this site.

It is also our intention to make available in digital form, a number of volumes, articles, and bibliographies that we will scan to PDF and RTF files and that will reside on the site as a simple download. S. U. Zuidema’s Communication and Confrontation, see for example, (PDF file, 1.84mb size).

H. van Reissen’s The Society of The Future, or H. J. van Eikema Hommes’s Major Trends in The History of Legal Philosophy, might serve as examples of the sort of works that are not readily available and would be of significant usefulness, but for various reasons we would not want to republish these works in a hard copy.

As soon as it is feasible we would like to produce an Encyclopedic Dictionary of the Philosophy of the Cosmonomic Idea. We presently envision this work to also cover the major figures of the Western tradition as well as the more important names from the Eastern to the Far-Eastern traditions. This project will begin in a modest fashion by first simply accumulating a list in rank order of the names and dates we need to include, and then gradually grow to maturity as the articles are developed and vetted. As we plan to produce this work at the highest level of systematic competence we have asked Prof. Daniel Strauss to serve as general editor. It will be his responsibility to enlist the aid of competent scholars in the various disciples as well as to assign articles. Needless to say this particular project will entail a great deal of work and cooperation from the reformational community.

Friends of this site who have the requisite technical skills and equipment to scan books for inclusion and distribution on the site, as well as chronologies, are encouraged to contact us with suggestions and possibilities.

Intro To Newly Published Titles on The Web
The Reformational Publishing Project and Paideia Press is pleased to announce the inauguration of an extensive web publishing program designed to place a broad variety of titles that fall within the general parameters of the Reformational tradition. We have presently scanned almost one hundred and twenty titles many of them in the original Dutch, for example, Dooyeweerd’s De Wijsbegeerte Der Wetsidee. Many more titles await the acquisition of clean copies. If readers have clean copies of works they would like to suggest for possible inclusion in this project I would be happy to hear from them. This project will be an ongoing one and will add new features at a later date. The list can be searched either by Author, or by Title.
