Future Of Atheism

The subject of atheism has been much in the news, following the highly publicized release of radically atheistic books by Richard Dawkins, Daniel Dennett, Sam Harris and Christopher Hitchens. This volume, which contains the transcript of a lively dialogue between Alister McGrath and Daniel Dennett on the topic of the present status of atheism, highlights points of agreement and disagreement between the two. It also provides the reader with an interdisciplinary assessment by a team of philosophers and theologians, of atheism in comparison with Christian theism.
