Well reasoned and irenic. Although I'm not a philosopher, and only took a single philosophy class in college, I was able to understand the arguements, although I did read much slower than I usually do. If you are interested in scientism or naturalism and what the arguements are against them from a theist perspective I recomend this book. With naturalism and scientism almost assumed in the academy and throughout current Western culture, this book provides a nice counterpoint and a good foundation for a thoughtful and intellectually inclined theist.

Very insightful introduction to the naturalism debate. Also commendable is the scope of the project which isn't too pretentious; it is rather more modest and doesn't pretend to be full of "take-down" arguments but possesses much more nuance than I feel many readers of this work may be willing to offer themselves. A work to be taken seriously. ( )
