More about the book
The book presents an alternative approach to belief in God, termed 'dialectical theism,' which seeks to address the shortcomings of classical arguments in a modern context. Professor Macquarrie emphasizes a balanced perspective that avoids the one-sidedness often found in traditional theism, while still aiming for a meaningful understanding of God, distinguishing his views from pantheism and panentheism. This thought-provoking exploration stems from his Gifford Lectures at the University of St Andrews.
