Evil: A Guide for the Perplexed is a lively examination of the philosophical and theological problems raised by the existence of widespread evil. It explores classic debates around this problem and also engages with more recent ones, from new challenges posed by scientific advances in evolutionary theory, neuroscience, and cosmology, to concerns of climate change and environmental degradation, to questions raised by increasing religious and secular violence. This second edition also contains new chapters and topics such as Jewish, Christian, and Islamic responses to evil and skeptical theism. The result is an even-handed guide to both traditional and contemporary issues raised by the reality and ubiquity of evil.

About the Author:
Chad V. Meister is Professor of Philosophy and Theology at Bethel College, Indiana, USA. He is the author or editor of 20 books, many of them on evil, including The Cambridge Companion to the Problem of Evil (co-edited with Paul Moser), God and the Problem of Evil: Five Views (co-edited with James Dew), and the six-volume The History of Evil (co-edited with Charles Taliaferro). He is also general co-editor of the series Cambridge Studies in Religion, Philosophy, and Society.
Review:

“An accessible, lucid examination of the theological problems evil causes as it manifests itself in various forms, this second edition of Evil: A Guide for the Perplexed adds chapters on topics such as Jewish, Christian, and Islamic responses to evil and skeptical theism ... The text is particularly engaging because it wrestles not only with older theodicies but also with modern-day issues that intersect with the notion of evil ... Summing Up: Recommended. Lower-division undergraduates; professionals.” – CHOICE

“...provides a worthwhile introduction, overview, and a continuing practical guide to the ever challenging theme of evil and, entices the reader to probe, ponder, hunger, adventure, and risk for more.” – Reading Religion
