Good book!

This is an astonishing book. Clayton manages to give a concise overview of what the Enlightenment philosophers did with the image of God they inherited from the Middle Ages. Also, Clayton links this overview to how metaphysics and theology relate to science. Although one of my criticisms is that he discusses mainly German philosophers like Kant, Leibniz and Schelling (and briefly Descartes and Spinoza as well), it is well worth a read. Clayton states that this book is the first of a two-part work. I do wonder when there will be a sequel to this book.
