Apologetics to the Glory of God
By John Frame
Presbyterian and Reformed. 247 pages. £.11.95
ISBN 978 087 5 522 432

This book is a primer in apologetics, from one of the United States's foremost disciples of Cornelius Van Til's presuppositionalist approach.

This is the view that a person's worldview can be reduced to certain assumptions (whether atheistic, polytheistic, rationalistic etc.) which affect their entire approach to opposing ways of life. By reducing the outlook of an opponent to their particular suppositions, Frame aims to demonstrate that their system of thought is internally incoherent, or so unpalatable as to be unworkable. As such, it stands in a distinct tradition regarding what does and does not constitute a distinctively Christian apologetic.
