Introduction

climbing the foothills of understanding — an intellectual autobiography

John Hick

pp. 1-21

Abstract

The particular subdivision of the wide field of religious studies in which I have worked is the philosophy of religion. During the past 40 years the subject has changed considerably in both scope and internal variety. I have been conscious of this particularly in producing revised editions of my small students' text on the philosophy of religion in Prentice-Hall's Foundations of Philosophy series, the first edition appearing in 1963 and the fourth in 1990.
