Summary: | Every now and then somebody (often an expert in an unrelated field) proclaims the incompatibility of faith and reason. In this book Professor Swinburne sets out to analyse what their relationship actually is. It is a drastically revised version of a book first published in 1981 as the concluding volume of a trilogy (the others being The Coherence of Theism and The Existence of God, itself recently revised and reissued). The book falls into three main sections. In the first, Swinburne distinguishes six possible uses of the phrase ‘rational action’ or ‘rational belief’. |
