Rezension zu „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)
