About this product
Product Information
From the #1 New York Times best-selling author of God Is Not Great , a provocative and entertaining guided tour of atheist and agnostic thought through the ages- with never-before-published pieces by Salman Rushdie, Ian McEwan, and Ayaan Hirsi Ali.Christopher Hitchens continues to make the case for a splendidly godless universe in this first-ever gathering of the influential voices- past and present- that have shaped his side of the current (and raging) God/no-god debate. With Hitchens as your erudite and witty guide, you'll be led through a wealth of philosophy, literature, and scientific inquiry, including generous portions of the words of Lucretius, Benedict de Spinoza, Charles Darwin, Karl Marx, Mark Twain, George Eliot, Bertrand Russell, Emma Goldman, H. L. Mencken, Albert Einstein, Daniel Dennett, Sam Harris, Richard Dawkins, and many others well-known and lesser known. And they're all set in context and commented upon as only Christopher Hitchens- political and literary journalist extraordinaire ( Los Angeles Times )- can. Atheist? Believer? Uncertain? No matter: The Portable Atheist will speak to you and engage you every step of the way.Product Identifiers

A Reference Book for Unbelievers
A comprehensive collection of erudite authors who have concluded that the universe was not constructed or controlled by a god. If you are familiar with the writings of Christopher Hitchens you will enjoy this book.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

The bargain, condition as described arrived promptly.
The title underlines the tendentiousness of the content. Nevertheless, it is a book for the thinker who is open to the understanding of another point of view if different to one's own. Comprised of essays and verses from various well-known and some less well-known writers, it is an excellent volume for 'pecking' at when reading time is limited. Fortunate to have obtained a valuable book at a bargain price, it will remain a treasured addition to my 'favourite' volumes.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
