Richard Granville Swinburne, born 26 December 1934, is an English philosopher and Emeritus Professor of Philosophy at the University of Oxford. Over fifty years he has been a proponent of philosophical arguments for the existence of God, and his contributions lie primarily in the philosophy of religion and the philosophy of science. His early work in the philosophy of religion was a trilogy of books consisting of The Coherence of Theism, The Existence of God, and Faith and Reason, and he has been influential in reviving substance dualism as an option in the philosophy of mind.
