520	8		_aAnnotation _bA clear and concise and original investigation of God's nature and God's existence. (It is a work in the analytic tradition of philosophy.) First of all, it considers (among other things) God's knowledge and power. It argues God cannot be all-knowing and cannot be all-powerful. It argues this is in accord with God being worthy of worship. Secondly, it considers God and evil. It introduces the notion of evil being "overridden". It argues God has to bring about a universe which includes free living things. It argues that, plausibly, this universe has to be such that they are liable to experience evil due to its conditions. It argues the evil in it is "overridden". Thirdly, it considers the principal arguments for the claim God does not exist. (They refer to the evil in the world.) It argues they do not establish sufficient grounds for this claim. Finally, it considers some well-known arguments for the claim God exists. It argues they face difficulties. It identifies other arguments. For example, some arguments to increase any degree of belief one has that God can exist. And, an argument that, plausibly, some human beings who experience God have sufficient grounds to believe God exists. So, it is covers the principal parts of the Philosophy of Religion. (It does so in a very organised and structured way.) It unifies (to a significant degree) these parts. It proceeds regularly by way of formal (and clear and non-technical) arguments. These arguments are frequently original. (A number of its main conclusions are contrary to what is generally held in philosophy and theology) about God.) So, it is in particular a work for advanced students and specialists in Philosophy (and Religious Studies and Theology).
