Faith in a Hard Ground: Essays on Religion, Philosophy and Ethics (St Andrews Studies in Philosophy and Public Affairs)

Elizabeth Anscombe was a formidable woman, with a formidable mind. This priceless book helps to explain her commitment both to her Christian Faith and to her own brand of analytic philosophy. The reader is helped on the way (...and sometimes this is needed!) with an introduction by her daughter, Mary. This is an essential read for any Catholic who struggles to reconcile his/her Faith with their more philosophical cogitations - but it is also an essential read for any Christian wishing to look more closely, and less fearfully, at the articles of their own Faith. Still more, it will give heart to women of any faith - or none - to perceive in Anscombe an intellect which dwarfed that of almost any man of her time - and to come away from the experience exalted in spirit.
