Book Description:

Philosopher and theologian Keith Ward is one of the most prolific scholars alive. For over forty years Ward has been a respected voice in many ongoing theological and philosophical discussions.

The mixture of intellect, imagination, passion and wit make Wards writings a must read for all those interested in philosophy or theology, whether a professional or a layman. This reader offers a distillation of Ward s most incisive pieces collected together for the first time. It will be an invaluable resource for students of philosophy of religion, apologetics, contemporary theology, religion and science and philosophy of science, for any general reader interested in comparative theology and the interplay between science and faith.
