Does God Exist? Without doubt, the greatest question to face humanity in its history, the controversy rages on today with a recent spate of books on both sides of the divide. However, this debate is not a new phenomenon. For centuries, our greatest philosophers, from Aristotle to Nietzsche, have sought to clarify the idea of a Supreme Being and examine the unique conundrums that He raises. Revealing the thoughts of history’s biggest philosophers on the biggest question of all, The God Question will help you make your own mind up. Presenting pithy arguments from the faithful, atheistic, and downright heretical, Pessin’s light-hearted prose will give you a captivating insight into a wide array of God-related puzzles, whether or not you are religiously inclined.

Andrew Pessin is Chair of Philosophy at Conneticut College. He is the author of Gray Matters: An Introduction to the Philosophy of Mind and has appeared on the David Letterman show several times as "The Genius".

"A really excellent book - next to faultless in its presentation." Tim Mawson, Lecturer in Philosophy, University of Oxford

"Brilliantly succinct. If you want to know what the greatest minds of the past 2500 years said on the most contentious issue in all of culture, you simply must start with this book." Michael Shermer, founding publisher of Skeptic Magazine and author of Why People Believe Weird Things
