Chapter 1

addresses some preliminary issues that it is important to think about in formulating arguments from evil.

Chapter 2

is then concerned with the question of how an incompatibility argument from evil is best formulated, and with possible responses to such arguments.

Chapter 3

then focuses on skeptical theism, and on the work that skeptical theists need to do if they are to defend their claim of having defeated incompatibility versions of the argument from evil.

Chapter 4

discusses evidential arguments from evil, and four different kinds of evidential argument are set out and critically examined.
