Description: |
A sound and comprehensive coursebook that introduces students and teachers to the nontheistic side of the debate over God's existence and its rich philosophical pedigree. |
Synopsis: |
The word 'atheism' is derived from the Greek: a meaning 'not' is conjoined with theos meaning 'god'. So atheism may be defined as follows: it is the belief that there is no God. Unfortunately definition of terms is rarely this straightforward . In this educational book, Michael Palmer undertakes to analyse, develop and discuss the complex and too often reduced notion of atheism. In spite of the consciously atheist point of view adopted by the author, the volume remains critical and objective, making religious, philosophical and political concepts around atheism understandable. Even though the book clearly adresses a young audience, any kind of reader will find food for thought in this vivid and detailed work. |
