Theology for Pilgrims

"Nicholas Lash's new collection of essays exposes the crisis in our thinking about God which is at the root of our misunderstandings and mistakes about science and politics, ethics and economies, life and death. Opening with a devastating critique of Richard Dawkins, he goes on to discuss the 'impossibility of atheism', disentangle faith and reason, retrieve the legacy of the second Vatican Council, and - amongst many other delights - offer sparkling insights into Diderot and Joseph Conrad."--Jacket.
