The God Delusion

'Timely, impassioned and brilliantly argued' Rod Liddle, Sunday Times

'A spirited and exhilaratingread' Joan Bakewell, Guardian

Dawkins attacks God in all his forms.

He eviscerates the major arguments for religion and demonstrates the supreme improbability of a supreme being. He shows how religion fuels war, foments bigotry and abuses children.

The God Delusion is a brilliantly argued, fascinating polemic that will be required reading for anyone interested in this most emotional and important subject.

Reviews

A very important book, especially in these times... a magnificent book, lucid and wise, truly magisterial

—— Ian McEwan

Written with all the clarity and elegance of which Dawkins is a master. It should have a place in every school library - especially in the library of every "faith" school

—— Philip Pullman

A resounding trumpet blast for truth... It feels like coming up for air

—— Matt Ridley

A spirited and exhilarating read... Dawkins comes roaring forth in the full vigour of his powerful arguments, laying into fallacies and false doctrines with the energy of the polemicist at his most fiery

—— Joan Bakewell , Guardian

This is my favourite book of all time... a heroic and life-changing work

—— Derren Brown

One of the best non-fiction writers alive today

—— Steven Pinker

Everyone should read it. Aethists will love Mr Dawkins's incisive logic and rapier wit and theists will find few better tests of the robustness of their faith

—— The Economist

This is a brave and important book. Is it too much to hope that it will dump religious bigotry in the dustbin of history where it belongs?

—— Desmond Morris

Could not be more apt for out times - Dawkins pulls out all the stops to demonstrate the force of his thesis in this passionate new book... lively and highly readable

—— The Sunday Times

An entertaining, wildly informative, splendidly written polemic... we are elegantly cajoled, cleverly harangued into shedding ourselves of this superficial nonsense that has bedevilled us since our first visit to Sunday school

—— Rod Liddle , The Sunday Times
