Short description:

Provides an authoritative first resource on motivations for the project of theodicy, important theodicies, and connections to meaning in life.

Long description:

Suffering is ubiquitous. Quests to make sense of it in relation to the existence of God - and to find meaning in our lives in the face of it - are significant aspects of the human experience. Evil and Theodicy motivates the project of theodicy by examining arguments rooted in evil against God's existence and by critically assessing the response of skeptical theism. Ekstrom explores eight different lines of theodicy. She argues that, even if the prospects for theodicy are dim with respect to defending the rationality of theistic belief in light of suffering, nonetheless, work in theodicies is practically useful.
