Natural Theology

More about the book

The book presents a meticulous exploration of the natural world, including flora, fauna, human anatomy, and celestial bodies, to argue for the existence of a benevolent deity. Paley utilizes the renowned watchmaker analogy to illustrate his points. While most recognized for this work, he also earned significant ecclesiastical accolades for his earlier writings, including a position at St. Paul's Cathedral. His logical approach to evidence in Natural Theology remains influential in discussions of faith and reason.
