Does goodness require God? Do we need eternity for meaningful lives? Should we believe in God without evidence? With historical adherents as various as Mark Twain, Einstein, Freud, Philip Pullman and Frank Zappa, humanism’s central quest is to live with meaning with no need for the supernatural. Showing how humanists make sense of the world using reason, experience and sensitivity, Cave emphasises that we can, and should, flourish without God. Lively, provocative and refreshingly rant-free, this audiobook is essential listening for all – whether atheist, agnostic, believer, or of no view – who wish better to understand what it means to be human.©2009 Peter Cave.

Recensioni editoriali

This audiobook is an essential tool for understanding the philosophy of humanism. Anyone who's ever wondered what this system is about will be pleasantly surprised with the thoroughness and vastness of information herein. Cave is meticulous and specific, rooting his theories in literary, spiritual, and ethical references. The audio challenges the idea of God, causing the audience to think about what a godless world might be like. Andrea Powell's narration is measured and clear. Her voice engages the listener without provoking him. This is an indispensable introduction to the subject.

Recensioni della critica

“An admirable guide for all those non-religious who may wake up to the fact that they are humanists … What we have in common is, indeed, not faith but our humanity.” (Sir Bernard Crick – Advisor On Citizenship To The UK Government)
"Some religious commentators say that the humanist life is immoral because it is godless; that it is meaningless because it knows of no deity or afterlife and there are only a few humanists in the UK compared with the number of godbelievers. They are wrong on all counts as this splendid book makes clear. Humanism is loving, sharing and caring and above all an intelligent philosophical way to make the best of our own and our neighbours’ lives. I could not commend it more." (Clare Rayner - Broadcaster, writer and Vice President of the British Humanist Association)
