This short book, only 8,000 finely crafted words, is destined to be one of the most cited and influential modern treatises on atheism and secular humanism. It focuses squarely on the inherent irrationality of religion, and reveals its utter irreconcilability with science. Offering several "reconciliation theories" to people of faith, it forces every reader to make a choice.
Contents: The Reason Revolution in historical context, Questioning belief, Reasons for skepticism, Secular humanism as an alternative worldview, Political implications of atheism, The collapse of religion, Hopeful predictions, Reconciliation theories, Comments by clergy, Call to action
