Produktinformationen zu „Theism and Ultimate Explanation (PDF)“
An expansive, yet succinct, analysis of the Philosophy of Religion
- from metaphysics through theology. Organized into two
sections, the text first examines truths concerning what is
possible and what is necessary. These chapters lay the foundation
for the book's second part - the search for a
metaphysical framework that permits the possibility of an ultimate
explanation that is correct and complete.
* A cutting-edge scholarly work which engages with the
traditional metaphysician's quest for a true ultimate
explanation of the most general features of the world we
inhabit
* Develops an original view concerning the epistemology and
metaphysics of modality, or truths concerning what is possible or
necessary
* Applies this framework to a re-examination of the cosmological
argument for theism
* Defends a novel version of the Leibnizian cosmological
argument
