Böcker av William J. (University of Wisconsin Wainwright

This Element examines aspects of monotheism and hope. Distinguishing monotheism from nontheistic religions, it explores how God transcends terms used to describe the religious ultimate. Wainwright examines the loves prized in Islam, Christianity and theistic Hinduism, and defends the sort of love valorized by them against some charges against it.

Reason, Revelation, and Devotion will appeal to advanced undergraduates and graduate students in philosophy, theology, or religious studies. The author focuses on important features of reasoning, which have been comparatively neglected by philosophers of religion, so it should be appealing to philosophers of religion as well.
