All of us, whether religious, agnostic or atheist, are searching for meaning. In this book, a non-believer both rejects the supernatural claims of the major religions and points out just how many good ideas they sometimes have about how we should live. It looks at the God debate with fresh eyes.

"A serious and optimistic set of practical ideas that could improve and alter the way we live".
The Times

"A beautiful, inspiring book ...offering a glimpse of a more enlightened path"
Sunday Telegraph

"Packed with tantalizing goads to thought and playful prompts to action".
Independent

"Smart, stimulating, sensitive. A timely and perceptive appreciation of how much wisdom is embodied in religious traditions and how we godless moderns might learn from it".
Financial Times "There isn't a page in this book that doesn't contain a striking idea or a stimulating parallel".
Mail on Sunday

"Packed with tantalizing goads to thought and playful prompts to action".

Religion

Ágata

The title of this book is a bit misleading because it almost never talks about other religions other than Christianity. Besides this, the book is fine and it is always very entertaining reading Bottons theories and philosophies.
