Book Description
Atheism is often considered to be a negative, dark, and pessimistic belief which is characterised by a rejection of values and purpose and a fierce opposition to religion. Atheism: A Very Short Introduction sets out to dispel the myths that surround atheism and show how a life without religious belief can be positive, meaningful, and moral. It also confronts the failure of officially atheist states in the Twentieth Century. The book presents an intellectual case for atheism that rests as much upon positive arguments for its truth as on negative arguments against religion.




Atheism (Very Short Introduction Series): A Very Short Introduction

FROM THE PUBLISHER

Atheism is often considered to be a negative and rather dark belief, characterized by a rejection of values and purpose, as well as a fierce opposition to religion in all its forms.

Julian Baggini sets out to dispel the myths that surround atheism and to show how a life without religious belief can be positive, meaningful, and moral. He also confronts the failure of officially atheist states in the twentieth century, such as the Soviet Union, and presents an intellectual case for atheism that rests as much on positive arguments for its truth as on negative arguments against religion.
