Product Description

Book Description

I Wish I Could Believe In Meaning is a life-affirming argument for objective meaning and purpose from British philosopher Peter S. Williams.

Peter invites us to seriously consider some of life’s big questions – about truth, knowledge, goodness and beauty. Drawing on the resources of philosophy and the latest scientifi c research, and illustrating his argument with examples from contemporary culture (from J.K. Rowling to Steven Spielberg), Peter builds a convincing case for belief in objective meaning and purpose.

5.0 out of 5 stars A strong philosophical case for God, 2 Feb 2006
By Dr. A. C. Latham (Scotland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
If you want to stretch your mind about the meaning and purpose of life (or lack of it) then this book is for you. Peter Williams is a philosopher who has immersed himself in the literature and the book is exaustively referenced. He very beautifully and logically discusses the evidence for a purposeful creator. He is particularly strong on the objective evidence for beauty in the universe. He also covers the reasons why fundamentalist Darwinism is flawed and he successfully tackles atheist writers such as Richard Dawkins - showing up their naturalism as incomplete and unsatisfactory. The book builds a foundation of hope in a world where many see no purpose in life.
