In this important book Professor Torrance shows that theological science necessarily differs from other sciences through the uniqueness of its object, for God cannot be treated merely as one of the constituents of the universe. Yet as a science theology is only a human endeavour, in which we seek to apprehend God as far as we may. Thus philosophical theology must be the philosophy of the science of God, seeking to lay bare and to test the logical basis of the knowledge of God in close dialogue with special sciences, and with modern philosophy in all its forms.
