Natural Theology

In this book my sole aim is to present clearly and succinctly for students some central arguments and truths about God in so far as He is known to us in the light of reason.

This pedagogical purpose dictates a great deal of compression, lest the student be lost in a labyrinth of dialectical and historical discussion, however important that may be in itself.

But compression need not mean oversimplification. It does mean condensing, abridging, epitomizing. This has been done deliberately, in the interest of the student.
