Recensioner i media

'It deserves to establish itself as a set text in its field.' - Brian Powley, Epworth ReviewIn an attractive and ordered text, Michael Palmer takes us through philosophical arguments about the existence of God ... Pictures, tables, diagrams, facsimiles, exercises, subheadings and lucid prose make this an appealing book that can be highly recommended.' - William K. Kay, King's College London, Journal of Beliefs and Values'... Michael Palmer's "Introduction and Sourcebook" deservedly stands alone as a uniquely creative and inventive approach to the six major arguments for God's existence ... The Question of God posseses an integrity and a coherence completely lacking in similar books of this kind. Simply put it has been exceptionally well thought out, and exceptionally well presented.' - Rob Fisher, Reviews in Religion and Theology'... a model of its kind - logical, clear and fair-minded. No university or A level student has any excuse for failing after reading it.' - Martin Camroux, Expository Times
