Synopsis

This title charts the path of humankind's great spiritual odyssey: the search for God. Along this ancient and much-debated route, the reader will encounter philosophers from Plato to Wittgenstein and religions from Judaism to the Hindu tradition, interspersed with diverse influences from Classical Greece, Romantic poetry, and the occasional scene from "Alien". Leading the way through this minefield is philosopher-theologian Keith Ward, blending the sublime and the eclectic in a narrative which offers wit, erudition and moments of genuine pathos.
