Description
In this book advocates of both process and free-will theism come together for the first time to describe their respective theological perspectives and enter into constructive dialogue with each other. Featuring two of today's best philosophers-David R. Griffin representing process theology and William Hasker representing free-will theism- as well as theologians interested in both views, this volume provides a fully orbed discussion of these two vital theological positions.
