About the Author:
Diogenes Allen is the former Stuart Professor of Philosophy at Princeton Theological Seminary and an Episcopal priest. He is known as one of the greatest Christian philosophers and apologists of the late twentieth century, whom many have compared to C.S. Lewis. Other books include Temptation, Steps Along the Way, Quest, and Spiritual Theology: The Theology of Yesterday for Help Today.
Review:
Diogenes Allen has done us the service of writing this book, which is at once theologically substantial and genuinely popular. --St. Luke's Journal of Theology
Good Christian apologetic, written with graceful modesty, aimed at real problems of belief and conduct, and informed by a wide-ranging philosopher's mind. --Theology Today
This little book is a treasure. I commend it partly for its obvious literary merit as a wonderfully effective short treatment of its subject. --Reformed Journal
