Rezensionen

"Keith Yandell is a first-rate philosopher who has written a clear-headed, fair, comprehensive introduction to thinking about the nature and cogency of 'western' and 'eastern' religious beliefs and practices. It is wide-ranging and rich with sustained, engaging arguments about God, the sacred, the self, values, and nature."
