Produktbeschreibung

Arguments between those who hold religious beliefs and those who do not are at fever pitch. This collection is one of the first books to move beyond this deadlock. Specially commissioned chapters address major areas that cut across the debate between the two sides. A key feature of the collection is a dialogue between Raymond Tallis and Rowan Williams, former Archbishop of Canterbury.
