Review:
A collection of 'irreverant thoughts' from notable atheists. Cheats slightly by quoting sceptical characters from plays and novels, many of them by believers or writers whose relationship with religion is uncategorisably complex (Graham Greene, Emily Dickinson). There's rather a lot of Arthur C Clarke and Wood Allen. But then there would be. --Time Out (4 Stars)

This slim, attractively produced volume will amuse nonbelievers and, ironically, cause them to spend hours reading about God and religion --Boston Globe

'When I think of all the harm [the bible] has done, I despair of ever writing anything to equal it' - "Oscar Wilde".
