Over the last seventy years philosophers and theologians have developed many intriguing new approaches to evil. The editors of this volume capture the important viewpoints informing the contemporary debate over evil by gathering together some of the most influential scholars in the field. This is an essential and definitive volume on the topic. Yujin Nagasawa, University of Birmingham, UK Gellman, Meister, and Taliaferro collect a wide range of responses that focus on pertinent themes and contributions from 1950 to 2018. The scope is impressive indeed, and the result, highly informative. If God's exact relation to evil remains puzzling, as expected, the volume puts us in a much better position to ask questions and even to make some sense regarding our ongoing predicament with evil. It therefore earns its keep, with real benefits for all readers. Paul K. Moser, Loyola University Chicago?, USA
