In this book, a leading philosopher of religion offers fresh insights into some of the disputed religious questions of our time. John Hick discusses, for example, whether religion is a wish-fulfilling projection or a human response to the Transcendent; how to solve the problems encountered by attributing to Jesus both all divine and all human properties; and why he believes that the major world faiths are different but equally valid responses to ultimate Reality.
