This remarkable work offers an analytical exploration of the nature of divine eternity and God's relationship to time. "TIME AND ETERNITY offers a comprehensive discussion of the problems in the concepts of time and eternity on the basis of an extraordinary familiarity with a vast number of recent contributions to this issue from scientists and philosophers. The argument is subtle and precise. Particularly important are the sections on the impact of the different versions of relativity theory on the concept of time." - Wolfhart Pannenberg. 272 pages, from Crossway.
Time and Eternity deals with difficult issues in modern physics and brings them into relation with traditional theological doctrines. Craig has done a great work, and it is marvelous that now the philosophy of religion is engaging with the philosophy of science to the great benefit of both.--John R.

The book offers a plausible argument for a realistic conception of temporal process and for God's involvement in the temporal distinctions and processes because of His presence in His creation.--Wolfhart PannenbergProfessor of Systematic The

Being neither a philosophy nor a physics graduate, I found this book very intellectually challenging. Part way though through, I was encouraged when watching a TV show on the physics of Time as to how much of that show was based on unproven speculation. This is testament to the author's solidly worked-through arguments. \\r\\nI suggest this book is best suited to people with some understanding of the science of time.
