Reviews for The Blackwell Companion to Natural Theology

"""If natural theology is overdue for a comeback, this work will help it on its way, and, for skeptical readers, there is much here to go on thinking about for months to come (making it a good catalyst for intelligent debate)."" (""Reference Reviews, "" February 2010)""All of these essays show sophistication and deserve wide attention. Common objections to the theistic arguments are considered and logical proofs are helpfully provided when appropriate."" (""Religious Studies Review, "" June 2010) ""Laudable and timely."" (""Church Times"", January 2010)"
