ISBN: 9781441134547 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 292 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Obstacles to Divine Revelation applies a philosophical approach to examining the concept of divine revelation and explores the notion that it may not be a simple matter for God, if there is a God, to give revelation to human beings.
