Atheism from the Reformation to the Enlightenment
ISBN: 9780198227366 / Angielski / Twarda / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The rise of atheism and unbelief is a key feature in the development of the modern world, yet it is a topic which has been little explored by historians. This book presents a series of studies of irreligious ideas in various parts of Europe during the two centuries following the Reformation. Atheism was illegal everywhere. The word itself first entered the vernacular languages soon after the Reformation, but it was not until the eighteenth century that the first systematic defences of unbelief began to appear in print. Its history in the intervening two centuries is significant but hitherto...

The End of the Soul : Scientific Modernity, Atheism, and Anthropology in France
ISBN: 9780231128476 / Angielski / Miękka / 416 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 25-30 dni roboczych. On October 19, 1876 a group of leading French citizens, both men and women included, joined together to form an unusual group, The Society of Mutual Autopsy, with the aim of proving that souls do not exist. The idea was that, after death, they would dissect one another and (hopefully) show a direct relationship between brain shapes and sizes and the character, abilities and intelligence of individuals. This strange scientific pact, and indeed what we have come to think of as anthropology, which the group's members helped to develop, had its genesis in aggressive, evangelical atheism. With...

Arguing for Atheism : An Introduction to the Philosophy of Religion
ISBN: 9780415093378 / Angielski / Twarda / 184 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22-25 dni roboczych. In this book, Robin Le Poidevin addresses the question of whether theism - the view that there is a personal, transcendent creator of the universe - solves the deepest mysteries of existence. Philosophical defences of theism have often been based on the idea that it explains things which atheistic approaches cannot: for example, why the universe exists, and how there can be objective moral values.

Romantic Atheism : Poetry and Freethought, 1780-1830
ISBN: 9780521026857 / Angielski / Miękka / 328 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Romantic Atheism explores the links between English Romantic poetry and the first burst of outspoken atheism in Britain, from the 1780s onward. Martin Priestman examines the work of Blake, Coleridge, Wordsworth, Shelley, Byron and Keats in their most intellectually radical periods, as well as a host of less canonical poet-intellectuals and controversialists of the time. Above all, the book conveys the excitement of Romantic atheism, whose dramatic appeals to new developments in politics, science and comparative mythology lent it a protean energy belied by the more recent conception of "loss...

Civilizations from simple tribal groups to mighty nation, ancient to modern have worshipped supernatural deities, gods or a God.

A preeminent scientist -- and the world's most prominent atheist -- asserts the irrationality of belief in God and the grievous harm religion has inflicted on society, from the Crusades to 9/11.
With rigor and wit, Dawkins examines God in all his forms, from the sex-obsessed tyrant of the Old Testament to the more benign (but still illogical) Celestial Watchmaker favored by some Enlightenment thinkers. He eviscerates the major arguments for religion and demonstrates the supreme improbability of a supreme being. He shows how religion fuels war, foments bigotry, and abuses children,...

Atheism Explained : From Folly to Philosophy
ISBN: 9780812696370 / Angielski / Miękka / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Atheism Explained explores the claims made both for and against the existence of God. On the pro side: that the wonders of the world can only be explained by an intelligent creator; that the universe had to start somewhere; telepathy, out-of-body experiences, and other paranormal phenomena demonstrate the existence of a spirit world; and that those who experience God directly provide evidence as real as any physical finding. After disputing these arguments through calm, careful criticism, author David Ramsay Steele presents the reasons why God cannot exist: monstrous, appalling evils;...
