Atheism: An Interdisciplinary Introduction

By Nathan Colborne

Atheism: An Interdisciplinary Introduction treats atheism seriously and fully, as a social, historical, and cultural phenomenon that has grown to become a significant option for millions of modern people. The volume examines atheism as a living social development that is best explained through the expertise of several different disciplines. It thus uses the specific tools that religious studies has developed for the study of religion--including historical, sociological, anthropological, psychological, philosophical, and political perspectives. This balanced introduction is the first book to treat this phenomenon from the multidisciplinary perspectives it requires for full understanding.
