The Devil's Delusion: Atheism and its Scientific Pretensions
by David Berlinski
256 pages Publisher: Basic Books
 
"Militant atheism is on the rise.
In recent years Richard Dawkins, Sam Harris, Daniel Dennett, and
Christopher Hitchens have produced a steady stream of best-selling books denigrating religious belief.
These authors are merely the leading edge of a larger movement that includes much of the scientific community.
In response, mathematician David Berlinski, himself a secular Jew, delivers a biting defense of religious thought. The Devil's Delusion is a brilliant, incisive, and funny book that explores the limits of science and the pretensions of those who insist it is the ultimate touchstone for understanding our world."
 
The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God.
