Description

For many centuries philosophers have been discussing the problem of evil - one of the greatest problems of intellectual history.

There are many facets to the problem, and for students and scholars unfamiliar with the vast literature on the subject, grasping the main issues can be a daunting task.

This Companion provides a stimulating introduction to the problem of evil.

More than an introduction to the subject, it is a state-of-the-art contribution to the field which provides critical analyses of and creative insights on this longstanding problem.

Fresh themes in the book include evil and the meaning of life, beauty and evil, evil and cosmic evolution, and anti-theodicy.

Evil is discussed from the perspectives of the major monotheistic religions, agnosticism, and atheism.

Written by leading scholars in clear and accessible prose, this book is an ideal companion for undergraduate and graduate students, teachers, and scholars across the disciplines.
