Reviews

John Leslie ... has written far and away the best book about the anthropic principle. <br>-John Polkinghorne, President of Queens College, Cambridge University <br> It is important . . . to have the fruit of Leslie's work, across two decades, summarized in one accessible book of manageable length, seriously argued but neither overly technical or esoteric . . . Written with a good deal of philosophical courage and much originality, virtues rather rare in contemporary philosophy. <br>- Zygon <br> A highly original, powerfully argued book that reveals a thorough knowledge of contemporary physics and cosmology. <br>-Quentin Smith, Nous <br> An exciting and important book. For, by developing a new and far more powerful form of Argument to Design, it effects a revolution in or . . . a resurrection of National Theology. <br>-Anthony Flew, Philosophical Books <br>
