Kierkegaard on God’s Will and Human Freedom is a masterful exploration of one of Kierkegaard’s central theological concerns. The book’s latter half primarily justifies the thesis, rather than advancing it, and this reflects Barrett’s thoroughness and focus. His scholarship is meticulous and his interpretations are insightful, making this book a valuable resource for Kierkegaard scholars and those interested in the interrelation between divine sovereignty and human agency.
