"Theodicy: An Essay on the Goodness of God, Human Freedom, and the Source of Evil" is an outstanding work of the philosopher Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz. In his essays, he examines the most difficult questions about the nature of God, the problem of evil, and the question of human freedom. Leibniz argues that the world was created by a good God, who is the ruler of everything and at the same time endowed man with freedom of choice. The author proposed the power of the idea of theodicy - belief in the harmony of the universe, where even evil has its place and plays an important role. His reflections leave the reader in awe of the depth of wisdom and argument laid out in the pages of this important work."
