Review # 1 was written on 2008-03-23 00:00:00 Kemal Ersin Yilmaz I haven't read every last essay in this book, but everyone will be read. This book is a paragon of light in a dark philosophical world. For those who aren't aware, there has been nothing short of a revolution going on in Anglo-American philosophy over the last twenty-five years. Theists are beginning to storm the strongholds of American academia and are taking back the entire discipline of philosophy with the highest level of analytic philosophy to hit this country in over one hundred years, maybe ever. This book is a collection of essays by some of the top philsophical theists in the U.S. If you've heard of the old arguments like the Cosmological, Design, and Ontological then realize that all of the arguments in this book have been given a renewed and up-to-date overhaul. The authors have taken pains to renew the discussion about these lines of reasoning and have even revived, with intensity, many of the arguments that some thought were merely a historical artifact. Christians are waking up intellectually in this field and I can't wait to see what the future holds.

Review # 2 was written on 2009-05-25 00:00:00 Ian Cameron Pretty good up-to-date approach to many issues in the philosophy of religion (e.g., problem of religious language, arguments for God (natural theology), and the coherence of theism) from a contemporary, analytic perspective. Authors are all Arminian-leaning, so that affects some of the essays (negatively or positively, depending on your persuasion, I guess).
