P. Z. Myers.
The Happy Atheist.
Vintage Books. 2013
On his popular science blog, Pharyngula, PZ Myers has entertained
millions of readers with his infectious love of evolutionary science
and his equally it infectious disdain for creationism, biblical literalism,
intelligent design theory, and other products of godly illogic.
This funny and fearless book collects and expands on some of his most popular writings,
giving the religious fanaticism of our times the gleeful disrspect it deserves
by skewering the apocalyptic fantasies, magical thinking, hypocrisies,
and pseudoscientific theories advanced by religious fundamentalists of all stripes.
Forceful and articulate, scathing and funny,
The Happy Atheist is a reaffirmation of the revelatory power of
humor and the truth-revealing powers science and reason.
