  <abstract>Most introductions to apologetics jump right into the "how to" of defending the faith. This book looks at more foundational questions. And if you are interested in defending and commending the faith, Thinking About Christian Apologetics is the place to start.</abstract>
  <tableOfContents>What is Christian apologetics? -- Patristic and medieval apologetics -- Modern and contemporary apologetics -- Varieties of apologetics -- Philosophical objections to apologetics -- Biblical and theological objections to apologetics -- Doing apologetics well.</tableOfContents>
