The rise of the New Atheism has aroused great general interest, yet the debate up to this point has focused largely on rebutting the new atheist critique of Christianity. Alister McGrath takes the discussion further, and explores how the ideas of the New Atheism are defended and propagated through websites and blogs.

As usual McGrath's analysis is clear, deceptive and evenly balanced. I am sure that he has correctly identified the flaws that will fairly soon result in the death of 'New Atheism'. Although as a believer I do not share the beliefs of what might be called regular atheists, I respect their position and firmly believe that they are very different from the so-called 'New Atheists' who are too militant and doing their cause no good - McGrath has made an effective anti-militant case very well. The New Atheists' problem is that God simply won't go away! - Bob Kimber Write a review
