The Heavens Declare the Glory of God
In his monograph, Cosmology Without God?

David Alcalde pronounces a harsh sentence on the cogency of much contemporary science-religion dialogue, in particular in the domain of theological claims made in virtue of the hypotheses, theories, or conclusions of modern cosmology
What Is the Philosophy of Nature? Review of Feser’s Aristotle’s Revenge
Edward Feser’s Aristotle’s Revenge (Editiones Scholasticae, 2019) is consequently a welcome addition to the late 20th- and early 21st-century resurgence of broadly Aristotelian and Thomistic approaches to the philosophy of nature, and the volume spells out in detail and begins to develop the metaphysical grounds to which Simon refers. It is essential reading for those interested in the topic of the perennial Aristotelian philosophy of nature and its relationship to the particular natural sciences.
New Book from Lawrence Feingold: An Introduction to Fundamental Theology

Dr. Lawrence Feingold’s recent volume, Faith Comes from What Is Heard: An Introduction to Fundamental Theology, published by Emmaus Academic, provides the reader with a much-needed “textbook” (xix) that faithfully and perspicaciously navigates the decisive waters of fundamental theology.
