Publisher's description:
Why is the human imagination to blame for the worst crimes of the twentieth century? Why is progress a pernicious myth? Why is contemporary atheism just a hangover from Christian faith? This collection of essays intends to smash through humanity's cherished beliefs to overturn our view of the world, and our place in it.
