| Summary: | "Although Reformed epistemology is an important and innovative body of religious epistemology, it has often been unnoticed or misunderstood by Catholic philosophers. At the same time, some of the theological and philosophical material that has most influenced Catholic thought has been overlooked by the Reformers as well. Rational Faith contains nine new essays by Catholic philosophers who critically evaluate the recent work of the Reformed epistemologists, including Alvin Plantinga, Nicholas Wolterstorff and George Mavrodes. Although the contributors employ a distinctly Catholic perspective, their papers are by no means wholly polemical; instead, each reflects an appreciation of the importance of Reformed epistemology and its impact on contemporary religious philosophy." "In light of the fact that Catholic and Protestant philosophers are too often unfamiliar with each other's work, the former usually trained in Thomistic or continental philosophy, the latter in Anglo-American philosophy, a primary goal of this collection is to stimulate dialogue between these two groups of Christian philosophers."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
