The God Delusion

Product Description

Details: The God Delusion caused a sensation when it was published in 2006. Within weeks it became the most hotly debated topic, with Dawkins himself branded as either saint or sinner for presenting his hard-hitting, impassioned rebuttal of religion of all types. His argument could hardly be more topical. While Europe is becoming increasingly secularized, the rise of religious fundamentalism, whether in the Middle East or Middle America, is dramatically & dangerously dividing opinion around the world. In America, & elsewhere, a vigorous dispute between 'intelligent design' & Darwinism is seriously undermining & restricting the teaching of science. In many countries religious dogma from medieval times still serves to abuse basic human rights such as women's & gay rights. & all from a belief in a God whose existence lacks evidence of any kind. Dawkins attacks God in all his forms. He eviscerates the major arguments for religion & demonstrates the supreme improbability of a supreme being. He shows how religion fuels war, foments bigotry & abuses children. The God Delusion is a brilliantly argued, fascinating polemic that will be required reading for anyone interested in this most emotional & important subject. Ideal for: Fantastic book, Opens up the mind & provokes thought & question about religion. This paperback measures: 19.7 x 12.7 x 3.1cm
