Praise for this book
"God and Abstract Objects (G&AO), William Lane Craig codifies over a dozen years of research and reflection on the threat that realist views of abstract objects pose to divine aseity. ... G&AO intended for a non-specialist audience. It is directed primarily to philosophers and theologians, ... ." (C.A. McIntosh, Philosophy in Review, Vol. 39 (2), May, 2019)
"In God and Abstract Objects, Craig sets about defusing the tension by exploring the options for accounting for mathematical practice and its role in our lives ... . He does this by means of an impressive synoptic overview of the contemporary philosophy of mathematics, examining positions that might offer the theistic philosopher a way to preserve the doctrine of aseity. ...The detailed engagement with positions in the philosophy of mathematics is to be found in God and Abstract Objects... ." (Simon Hewitt, Philosophia Mathematica, August, 2018)
