Annotation Miracles cannot be shunted to one side as an embarrassing hangover from a "pre-scientific age." Miracles have played an important role in the history of all the major world religions, and many religious believers claim that they continue to do so. This accessible book examines the nature of miracles both in philosophical and historical terms, and concludes that, whether or not miracles happen, it is difficult to see how religious belief could survive without them.
