Oxford University Press - The Problem of Evil for Atheists

Explore a fresh perspective on one of philosophy's most challenging questions. In The Problem of Evil for Atheists, Yujin Nagasawa reexamines why terrible events like crimes, wars, and natural disasters occur in our world. While this debate often focuses on traditional theists and an omnipotent, good God, Nagasawa argues that the issue goes much deeper. This book transforms the perennial philosophical debate by showing that the problem of evil impacts more than just theists. It poses a significant challenge for atheists and other non-theists, including pantheists and axiarchists. This work provides a new way to understand how suffering and evil relate to various worldviews, making it a vital read for students and thinkers interested in theology and philosophy.
