Longing to Know: The Philosophy of Knowledge for Ordinary People (Brazos, 2003) is a transformative book about how we go about knowing in every area of our lives. It's especially for people considering Christianity who have issues around faith and reason, certainty and doubt. The book's playful "driving analogy" is that "Knowing God is like knowing your auto mechanic." Check out Meek's work at www.estherlightcapmeek.com
