- catalog abstract ""Between the contemporary extremes represented by Alvin Plantinga and Richard Swinburne - the simple assertion that belief in God is "properly basic" on the one hand, and complex, cumulative, probabilistic argumentation on the other - this innovative new study charts a "middle way" to God. In an approach which partakes of both the firmness of the first extreme and the fuller rationality of the second, Garth L. Hallett freshly explores the thesis that if belief in other minds is rational and true (as it surely is), so too is belief in God.". "This conclusion, and the distinctive path that leads to it, will interest students and scholars in philosophy of religion and theology. A Middle Way to God will also be enlightening reading for general readers with an interest in the question of God's existence."--BOOK JACKET.".
