Beschreibung

Offering a new model for the philosophy of religion, John Cottingham combines emotional and intellectual aspects of our human experience, and embraces practical as well as theoretical concerns. Cottingham reveals how a religious worldview is best understood not as an isolated set of doctrines, but as intimately related to spiritual praxis and to the search for self-understanding and moral growth. Touching on many important debates in contemporary philosophy and theology, but accessible to general readers, this book covers a range of central topics in the philosophy of religion.
