Description
Book SynopsisThis summary of the arguments that dominate the current scene of thought unravels the philosophies behind modern popular and academic culture. Veale, a high school teacher, uses these arguments to motivate readers to stop and to think about their own direction and purpose, and ultimately, through consideration of the crucial questions, to find the vital answers.
Trade ReviewWith common sense and uncommon clarity, Graham Veale surveys the popular arguments of the New Atheists that have given so many people intellectual indigestion.
