{"product_id":"the-analogy-of-religion-also-fifteen-sermons-1881","title":"The Analogy of Religion; also Fifteen Sermons (1881)","description":"First published in 1736, Joseph Butler's The Analogy of Religion, Natural and Revealed, to the Constitution and Course of Nature is one of the most influential works of English theology and philosophy of religion. Against the deists of his age, Butler argues that the difficulties raised against revealed religion have exact parallels in the observable order of nature, so that a reasonable person who accepts the one has no consistent ground for rejecting the other. His method of cumulative probability shaped moral philosophy and apologetics for well over a century, and was read closely by Hume, Newman and Gladstone.This volume also gathers Butler's Fifteen Sermons preached at the Rolls Chapel, the foundation of his moral philosophy and the source of his celebrated account of conscience.This is a faithful print-on-demand facsimile of the 1881 edition, reproduced in full from a library copy. The historical text is reproduced without modification; only the format, margins and legibility have been reset for modern printing.","brand":"EDITIONS RECREASOFT","offers":[{"title":"Perfect Bound","offer_id":67474394349872,"sku":"9782387810083","price":37.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.thegreatbritishbookshop.co.uk\/products\/the-analogy-of-religion-also-fifteen-sermons-1881","provider":"The Great British Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
