Review of Metaphysics 37 (2):398-400 (1983)
  Copy   BIBTEX

Abstract

There is a growing appreciation amongst philosophers for the contribution of John Henry Newman to mainstream Anglo-American natural theology, and this book is a welcome addition to the available literature. Ferreira explores the relationship between faith and reason, and the sort of epistemic warrants behind the alleged rational commitment to religious belief.
