Description
To write a book which appeals both to the philosophy student and to the less informed reader is not an easy task. But Colin Brown combines a non-technical, often amusing style with a scholarly mastery of the significance of philosophical trends and their relation to his faith. The student will benefit from the wide picture given by this up-to-date survey and will make use of the detailed Notes on Books for further information. The general reader will finish the book informed, entertained and stimulated to further study.
