Good but for some reason a little hard to follow in places.: Being new to the thought of DZ Phillips I was very excited to read this work. While he does a good job on the topic, he is a bit overzealous in his criticism of other philosophers.Indeed, he seems to indite most of the Christian apologetics and philosophical enterprise with illegitimacy. Perhaps this is due to what appears to me to be a denigration of the place of logic and reason in the Christian life. Sadly, I recently discovered he had passed away. I heard from a Christian philosopher and friend that while DZ can be very "biting" in his books,he was a wonderful person.
Surprisingly easy to read: Although this book presupposes a fairly broad academic knowledge base, it is neverless relatively easy to read. Unless I'm kidding myself, this book is about how a Christian commitment turns out to be the answer to the problems of both God and Evil. And all its philosophy talk is just icing on the cake.
