A Companion to the Philosophy of Religion: Second edition

In 85 new and updated essays written by an outstanding cast of leading scholars and rising stars in the field, this comprehensive work provides an authoritative guide to the philosophy of religion.

This extensively revised second edition contains 22 new entries combined with updated and reorganized, material from the previous edition. Coverage of the challenges to theism, the justification of theistic belief, and the history of the philosophy of religion has been expanded. An entirely new section, ‘Current Trends and New Directions’, contains 10 entries, including new essays on Wittgensteinian philosophy of religion, continental philosophy of religion, evidentialism, and philosophical reflection on mysticism.

Engagingly written in a style that appeals both to the non-specialist and the professional philosopher, this work provides a broad survey of the issues in the philosophy of religion, and offers an invaluable reference resource which will be referred to again and again.
