The original claim made in the introduction to this classic volume
was that it broke fresh ground: that it set a new agenda for the
philosophy of religion and was a reaction against a narrow
conception of the discipline that had little to say philosophically
about human experience, or subjectivity, or about the religious
imagination, or the idea of 'spirituality'. In a new Foreword to
the book, Michael McGhee reflects on how the discipline has changed
or remained the same in the intervening twenty-five years since
first publication. He argues that the connections between
'philosophy' and 'spirituality' are still developing; and that what
we think of as 'religious' or 'spiritual' is shifting, along with
ideas about self-knowledge. The book contains pertinent chapters by
some of the leading thinkers in the field, including Rowan
Williams, Janet Soskice, Fergus Kerr, Stephen Clark and Paul
Williams, who offers a comparative piece on Tibetan Buddhism.
