Pocket dictionary of apologetics & philosophy of religion: 300 Terms And Thinkers Clearly And Concisely Defined (The IVP Pocket Reference Series) - Softcover

For philosophers, the pursuit of truth travels on precise definitions. For Christian apologists, the defence of the faith is founded on the defining Word. For students approaching either discipline for the first time, and for beginning students of either discipline, the difference between success and frustration begins with understanding the terms and ideas and identifying the thinkers and movements. The Pocket Dictionary of Apologetics & Philosophy of Religion is designed to be a companion to your study of these two related disciplines. Among its three hundred definitions are; terms, from a posterior to worldview; apologists, from Abelard to Van Til; philosophers of religion, from Alston to Wolterstorff; movements, from analytic philosophy to voluntarism; apologetic arguments, from the cosmological to the wager; theologies, from Arminianism to Zoroastrianism; Here is an affordable and easily accessible "help key" for your readings, lectures, writing assignments and exam preparation. It's a must-have study aid for any student who expects to cogitate on coherentism or ruminate on Ricouer.
