Product Description
Product Description
Peter Vardy’s much acclaimed introduction to the study of ideas about God – now revised and updated.
A clear, well-written guide to philosophical thinking about God. Starting with the question of what it means to say we believe in God, and looking at the nature of truth, Peter Vardy goes on to examine ideas about God and their influence on Christian thinking.
Peter Vardy takes the reader through the arguments, using amusing illustrations and analogies. He writes for the lay person or student, not assuming any specialist knowledge, and not imposing any particular view.
‘This is about the best elementary textbook in the philosophy of God I have come across… an extremely useful book.’
Hugh Meynell, The Tablet
‘This is a masterpiece of coherence. Step by step the reader is led clearly and humorously through the philosophical maze which confuses our thinking about God.’
Linda Smith, Head of Religious Education, King’s College, London

Peter Vardy is an excellent writer and discusses the issues from a non biased perspective. You should definately buy this book if you are puzzled in regards to your faith and you want to explore arguments in regards to this.
This book had me asking questions I know I should have asked myself but never had and also introduced me to some new ideas. I found that this book had the most effective impact by reading a section then going away to think about the things that had come up. I believe any Christian should read this book and ask themselves some important questions about what it is they believe.
Thankfully this book has no straight answers and its intention is purely to allow you to ask yourself these questions, allowing you to analyse what you are really saying in your beliefs. After reading only a select few chapters I had found myself re-evaluating my views, noticing flaws in what I held dear. Any who have ever pondered God's existence and what God means owe it to themselves to read this book.
