Title: Juvenile Philosophy
Review: Sam Harris is very intelligent and tries hard to show it. Unfortunately this book should never have made it past the editor's desk without wholesale revisions. The first substantive chapter is thought-provoking and lays out an interesting schema; unfortunately, the author has difficulty writing more than a single cohorent paragraph and then relating it to his overall thesis or to a chapter's thesis. The reader doesn't need three pages of unexplicated direct quotes from the Quran to get the author's point. Similarly, the reader will be insulted by the quote on Buddhism picked by the author closing his eyes and pointing his finger at a random page. Clearly, given the title, the publisher knew it would sell. There are lots of other well-written books on the issues around religion and terrorism ... avoid this one.
