"Traces the development of atheistic and agnostic thinking from the 'Golden Age' of Greek philosophy to the present day. Pinpoints the influence of thinkers such as Immanuel Kant, Friedrich Nietzsche, Martin Heidegger, Albert Camus, Jean-Paul Sartre and Bertrand Russell, and shows how their teaching has helped to shape modern atheistic and agnostic ideas. traces the rise of Darwinian evolutionism and uncovers the weaknesses in claims made by its contemporary exponents such as Richard Dawkins and Peter Atkins. Exposes the errors of secular humanism, materialism, relativism, determinism and existentialism. Highlights the fundamental flaws in nine world religions and fourteen major cults. Shows why true science and true religion are not enemies, but friends. Examines the critical issue of how an all-powerful God of love can allow evil and suffering in the world" --Cover, p. 4.
