God and the Multiverse (eBook, ePUB)

Scientific, Philosophical, and Theological Perspectives
Redaktion: Kraay, Klaas

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This collection brings together broad perspectives exploring the relationship between theism and the idea that multiple universes exist beyond our own, aiming to thoroughly assess the idea that a multiverse is to be expected if theism is true. Contributors including ten philosophers, two physicists, and one philosopher-astrophysicist discuss various theistic multiverse models, and their scientific, philosophical, and theological ramifications. God and the Multiverse provides a definitive contemporary treatment of the provocative claim that if God exists, there are many universes.
