The Person God Is

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This is Volume I of seven in a collection on the Philosophy of Religion. Originally published in 1970. What is the nature of the person? The revival of interest in this question in learned circles - literary, philosophical, theological, psychological, sociological, and political - is manifested not only in the range of pertinent knowledge but also in the probing for better methods of studying persons and their mutual relations. This book focuses on the nature of the person, finite and divine.
