Review: A Mirror for the Unchristian Seeker

If you're not a Christian, you ought to have your own set of reasons. Chances are that you're an independent, critical thinker. Still, it's reassuring sometimes to receive confirmation of one's feelings...

Professional Reviews
  New York Times Book Review: "Russell is a very great philosopher, though it may be questioned whether he is at his best in dealing with the complex and tragic affairs of human history. He brings to his subject a cool irony, in which common sense and nonsense are curiously compounded. Or rather the common sense sometimes turns to nonsense when he counters a religious absurdity with an absurdity of his own, setting against religious obscurantism his own brand of sophisticated naivete."
