(PUBEerdmans)The 1988 Templeton Prize winner scrutinizes the idea of God in Descartes, Leibnitz, Spinoza, Kant, Fichte, and Schelling, seeing an intense struggle over the attributes of infinity and perfection. He also makes a strong case for 'panentheism'---the belief in a transcendent deity who is not separate from the world. 544 pages, hardcover.
