Table of ContentsAcknowledgements Introduction : A Winter's Tale Part One : Belief in the Making Part Two: Believability Part Three: The Making of Belief Conclusion : Lost in Paradise Bibliography IndexReviews'When we think of beliefs we think of views and ideas, while (a bit more technically) philosophers speak of 'propositional attitudes' or 'judgments'. In his extremely original new book Graham Ward explores operations of belief that go much deeper: dispositions (some of which act at the physiological as well as cultural level), prior to conscious attentiveness, and thus informing perception, interpretation and action prior to rationalization. This is a bold and brilliant thesis, cogently worked out by the author, with ramifications well beyond Christian theology.'- Fergus Kerr, OP, Honorary Fellow, University of Edinburgh, author of Immortal Longings: Versions of Transcending Humanity and of Theology after Wittgenstein Author InformationGraham Ward is Regius Professor of Divinity in the University of Oxford.
