«
"Writing in crystal clear language, Elizabeth Burns provides an insightful, concise, and classroom-ready treatment of every question central to philosophy of religion. Each chapter captures the classical ideas and the contemporary challenges to belief in God. A reliable guide."
Kevin Schilbrack, Appalachian State University, USA
"Burns has accomplished her goal in this book of defining, in graspable terms, what the philosophy of religion entails. (...) Burns’s slim volume provides a valuable synthesis of the philosophy of religion."
Nathan 'Jack' Read, Ryokan College
