dc.description.abstractJohn Leslie is the philosopher who has most devoted himself to the analysis of recent claims that our universe is fine-tuned for producing life. Here we have the fruit of Leslie's work across two decades, summarized in one accessible book of manageable length, seriously argued but neither overly technical nor esoteric. In a companion book, Physical Cosmology and Philosophy, Leslie couples his systematic treatment with an anthology of the principal articles in the field. Together, the two books are excellent texts for a stimulating class on cosmology.
