Cover of Cottingham John Cottingham: Why Believe? (PDF)

Why Believe? sees John Cottingham, a philosopher of searing intellectual honesty, examine our society’s struggle with the concept of belief.Cottingham’s carefully reasoned yet impassioned account shows how the religious outlook connects with our deepest human longings, how it links up with our moral and aesthetic experience, how it is integrally involved in the quest for self understanding, and how it is not after all in conflict with a scientific understanding of the world.
