About the Author:
A popular introduction to arguments about the existence of evil in the world. Complex issues are explained in clear and entertaining language.
Another title in Peter Vardy’s much acclaimed Puzzle series, setting out the classic dilemma of Christian thought – why is there evil in the world if God is good? It seems that either God is not powerful enough, or not good enough to prevent it. Vardy draws on the work of Christian and secular writers to explain the issues.
Vardy looks at the argument of free will, the devil, natural evil and absolute value judgments.
“A refreshing book which teachers and students of religion and philosophy, plus many lay people, will find clear and readable.”
Catholic Herald
“He grapples with a vast theme with an admirable clarity of thought and purpose.”
Baptist Times
Dr Peter Vardy is lecturer in Philosophy of Religion at London University’s Heythrop College.

Book Description Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. First Published in 2015. The first half of this book concludes that, if human reason is master, there seems to be no way of equating a good and powerful God with evil in the world. In the second half, searching for a solution, the author takes as his starting point St Augustine's credo, I believe in order that I may understand. He builds up a series of statements which express the central Christian convictions in relation to the problem of evil, a viewpoint which the reader may accept or not. First Published in 2015.
