This book is Van Til's most complete succinct introduction to his method of defending the faith. Here he presents the underpinnings of this uniquely biblical approach. Van Til shows how Christian apologetics is rooted in a unified system of scriptural truth, a worldview that encompasses all spheres of knowledge.

Clives Staples Lewis (1898-1963) called his theological writings as that ""of a layman and an amateur"" who merely attempted to restate ""ancient and orthodox doctrines."" However, S.
