This argument has an immediate appeal to many in an uncertain and frightened world; but does the evidence of the pure sciences - cosmology, quantum mechanics, genetics - support his contention that science has finally eliminated God? Is Dawkins' empty and hopeless philosophy that human life has no lasting purpose or significance supported by the current state of knowledge?
This robust and vigorous book analyses Richard Dawkins' bleak view of the human condition and reveals fundamental flaws and distortions, and a very limited perspective. Drawing on the evidence of a wide range of academic disciplines - science, theology, history, philosophy and others - it offers a basis for thoughtful and creative religious belief in the light of our developing understanding of the world we live in.
