Recensione:
The book is incredibly rich in scope and ambition, canvassing just about every major philosophical issue that arises in connection with divine commands. In the process Hare discusses a dizzying array of thinkers who have reflected on relevant issues, critiquing many of them with insights both trenchant and penetrating. The net effect is an impressive and comprehensive articulation and defense of divine command theory. (David Baggett, Liberty University)
God's Command is an outstanding defence of a version of divine command theory. ... the book is a major contribution to the discussions of divine command in both philosophical and theological ethics. (Mustafa Çakmak, Studies in Christian Ethics)
