Inhaltsverzeichnis

The main and original contribution of this volume is to offer a discussion of teleology through the prism of religion, philosophy and history. The goal is to incorporate teleology within discussions across these three disciplines rather than restrict it to one as is customarily the case.

Dan O'Brien is Reader in Philosophy and Subject Co-ordinator for Philosophy at Oxford Brookes University

Marius Turda is Professor in 20th Century Central and Eastern European Biomedicine at Oxford Brookes University.
