Very Good 4 out of 5 stars.

I liked this book, the arguments were clear and Harris even explored the recent developements in philosophy of language, which was very good. I would have liked to know Harris' actual religious stance (atheist, agnostic, christian). But it was a very clear read, and an excellent overview of most topics in the contemporary analytic philosophy of religion.
Editorial Review:
This book is a thorough examination of the major issues that have occupied twentieth-century Anglo-American, analytic philosophy of religion and the positions that have been developed by the major figures in the field. The author also develops his own critical reactions to these positions and, in many cases, his own positions as well. Attention is focused on what have proven to be the enduring, major problems of analytic philosophy of religion: the development and nature of analytic philosophy, the problem of religious language, the nature of God, arguments for the existence of God, religious experience, religious epistemology, religion and science, the problem of evil, naturalism and humanism, religion and ethics, and religious pluralism. This book should prove to be an invaluable resource and reference for both scholars and students interested in any problem in the area of analytic philosophy of religion.
