What is Atheism? -- The case for Atheism -- Atheist ethics -- Meaning and purpose -- Atheism in history -- Against religion?
The author confronts the failure of officially atheist states in the twentieth century, and presents an intellectual case for atheism that rests as much on reasoned and positive arguments for its truth as on negative arguments against religion.
