摘要:"This is the first book-length philosophical treatment of the 'faith seeks understanding' project. An understanding of this project is crucial for an appreciation of one important aspect of Western philosophy, and of much significant contemporary philosophy of religion. According to this approach, philosophical argument is employed in the elucidation and clarification of religious doctrine. Reason is not opposed to faith, but harnessed in its service." "The book focuses on the exposition and critical appraisal of ideas and arguments rather than their historical provenance, discussing these in the light of contemporary developments, and so provides a modern treatment of an abiding theme in the philosophy of religion."--Jacket.
