This book presents the most recent debates by leading contemporary
philosophers of enduring themes and issues concerning the question of
God's existence. William Craig and Antony Flew met on the 50th
anniversary of the famous Copleston/Russell debate to discuss the
question of God's existence in a public debate. The core of this book
contains the edited transcript of that debate. Also included are
eight chapters in which other significant philosophers - Paul Draper,
R. Douglas Geivett, Michael Martin, Keith Parsons, William Rowe,
William Wainwright, Keith Yandell and David Yandell - critique the
debate and address the issues raised. Their substantial and
compelling insights complement and further the debate, helping the
reader delve more deeply into the issues that surfaced. In the two
final chapters, Craig and Flew respond and clarify their positions,
taking the debate yet one step further. The result of these many
contributions is a book which provides the reader with a summary of
the current discussion and allows one to enter into the dialogue on
this central question in the philosophy of religion.
