Summary: The aim of the book is to clarify the concept of omniscience. This is done first by discussing basic questions on omniscience (chs. 1-12) and secondly by offering a theory of omniscience as an axiomatic system in which also a definition of omniscience is given (ch. 13). The twelve chapters deal with questions like whether everything is true what God knows, whether God ́s knowledge is bound to time, whether it concerns singular truths or only laws, whether it extends also to contingent futureevents.etc. The book is neither a book about the existence of God nor about proofs for his existence. It is.
