‘The work distils compelling arguments and ideas from its two predecessors, Why Believe? and How to Believe… Cottingham deals with each of the major objections to religions in turn, and offers a positive view of the religious attitude. His arguments are all the more compelling for being expressed in beautifully crafted, precise, at times almost poetic language; nearly every page has at least one quotable sentence.'
Professor Graham Shipley, Sophia.
