Discerning Religious Truth

Discerning Religious Truth comprehensively gathers all the substantial questions and debates of Islamic logic that are mentioned in mature works of logic; supplements them with a selection of important questions from other important manuals in Islamic logic, kalam, and falsafa; unravels their layered organization into a more readable linear organization; and then re-expresses them in a fluid English style that uses the technical vocabulary of modern analytic philosophy. It is this last point that is most important: the re-expression of the questions and debates of traditional Islamic logic in the technical vocabulary of modern analytic philosophy, and this is why this book is subtitled: "Islamic Logic in the Language of Modern Analytic Philosophy."
