The God Delusion

A resounding trumpet blast for truth... It feels like coming up for air

Matt Ridley

A spirited and exhilarating read... Dawkins comes roaring forth in the full vigour of his powerful arguments, laying into fallacies and false doctrines with the energy of the polemicist at his most fiery

Joan Bakewell, Guardian

A very important book, especially in these times... a magnificent book, lucid and wise, truly magisterial

Ian McEwan

An entertaining, wildly informative, splendidly written polemic... we are elegantly cajoled, cleverly harangued into shedding ourselves of this superficial nonsense that has bedevilled us since our first visit to Sunday school

Rod Liddle, The Sunday Times

Could not be more apt for out times - Dawkins pulls out all the stops to demonstrate the force of his thesis in this passionate new book... lively and highly readable

The Sunday Times

Everyone should read it. Aethists will love Mr Dawkins's incisive logic and rapier wit and theists will find few better tests of the robustness of their faith

The Economist

One of the best non-fiction writers alive today

Steven Pinker

This is a brave and important book. Is it too much to hope that it will dump religious bigotry in the dustbin of history where it belongs?

Desmond Morris

This is my favourite book of all time... a heroic and life-changing work

Derren Brown

Written with all the clarity and elegance of which Dawkins is a master. It should have a place in every school library - especially in the library of every "faith" school

Philip Pullman
