Title: "Atheism for Dummies"
Review: The basic essential truth of Harris' disasterously predictable piece is that the vast majority of the ideas he expresses have largely been penned before, with better insight, by better writers. My best analysis of the rational behind this book is that Harris was either attempting to simplify a series of abstract concepts for a mainstream, semi-educated audience, or he's simply not a talented critical thinker.In the same instance, while I agree with Harris' general concept of the horrible effects religion has had on the world, his is certainly not the perspective I would consider recommended reading. Hense, it would be quite a disappointment if the public latched onto this book with the same in-depth analysis one would (and should) afford the more academic sources of this brand of philosophy.Don't embarrass yourself by picking this one up. Stick with Nietsche instead...
