For most of us, learning abstract philosophical concepts involves literally learning a new language, a language that the initiated converse in with ease but which leaves the rest of us baffled. The SCM Studyguide to Philosophy and Christian Faith aims to meet a need for an accessible treatment of the intersection between philosophy and theology. It deals with some of the loftiest concepts ever conceived by the human race, and yet makes these easy to grasp and applicable. A must—have primer, the book offers students an overview of the history of Western philosophy, and equips them to understand more deeply the culture—shaping beliefs that are driving the kinds of questions, both past and present, which our culture brings to the Christian faith.
