While most books on atheism focus on either The Bible itself, complicated philosophical arguments for and against the existence of a god, or rely on science to contradict religious teachings, this book takes a much simpler approach. Instead of examining the theologian, it examines reasons the "common man" would give for why they have faith. The book isn't harsh or complicated; rather it is polite and easy to understand. I would recommend as a first time book for a theist wishing to understand why an atheist rejects their beliefs, and for the atheist, to try and get an insight as to why people believe the things they do. Each chapter is independent. It is more of a collection of essays than a single book, which means you can read a chapter and put the book away for a few days if needed and not need to refresh on what you forgot. You can easily read a chapter in a short amount of time, perhaps for some food for thought on lunch break, or something to sleep on at night.
