Books by James P. Carse

James P. Carse (1932–2020) was a professor of religion at New York University, where he taught for thirty years and served as director of religious studies. He wrote numerous books at the intersection of theology, philosophy, and culture, including The Religious Case Against Belief and Breakfast at the Victory. Finite and Infinite Games, published in 1986, became his most widely read work and found audiences far beyond academic philosophy, attracting readers in business strategy, game design, and personal development. Carse was known for a style of philosophical writing that favored provocation over systematization.
