About this product

Product Information

Evil: A Guide for the Perplexed is a lively examination of the philosophical and theological problems raised by the existence of widespread evil. It explores classic debates around this problem and also engages with more recent ones, from new challenges posed by scientific advances in evolutionary theory, neuroscience, and cosmology, to concerns of climate change and environmental degradation, to questions raised by increasing religious and secular violence. This second edition also contains new chapters and topics such as Jewish, Christian, and Islamic responses to evil and skeptical theism. The result is an even-handed guide to both traditional and contemporary issues raised by the reality and ubiquity of evil.

Whilst most treatments of evil within philosophy of religion revolve around theodicies, Meister gives extensive consideration to the hiddenness of God, to atheistic arguments, and to Hindu and Buddhist responses to evil and suffering; all of which take him into further territory, including that of religious experience and neurological accounts of religious belief. Written in Meister's characteristically clear style, this book will be an invaluable resource for people of all faiths and none., An accessible, lucid examination of the theological problems evil causes as it manifests itself in various forms, this second edition of Evil: A Guide for the Perplexed adds chapters on topics such as Jewish, Christian, and Islamic responses to evil and skeptical theism ...
