Why are more and more people believing that there is no god?It sometimes feels that much of the western world is now post-religious. But now the initial charge of Richard Dawkins and the new atheists has past, what does atheism really mean? That is the question that Dylan Evans addresses in this thoughtful and engaging atheist manifesto.Discover what values atheists share with believers. Explore how can a belief that something doesn't exist can still be a belief. And find out whether modern atheism is new or just a new form of an old system of values.Building on the work of atheist philosophers and psychologists, Dylan Evans shows how the history of atheist thought has developed and offers fresh ideas for how life has meaning from an atheist perspective.
