By Len Collin on 24 Aug. 2015
Format: Kindle Edition Verified Purchase
Dawkins argues effectively for freedom from religion and it is indeed a must read. However the man's arrogance does not serve his arguments well, and that's the only reason it merits four stars instead of five.

5.0 out of 5 starsThank you.
By Amazon Customer on 19 Jan. 2016
Format: Kindle Edition Verified Purchase
A love of Ricky Gervais and Brian Cox brought me to this book and a general awareness of Richard Dawkins. I was raised a Catholic but have had doubts for years, never really had the courage to admit to being an Atheist but because of publications like this I now can, confidently, with courage and knowledge. Thank you Richard, our world needs more men like you.

4.0 out of 5 starsWorth a read! ...(well worth)
By Peterich on 8 Oct. 2015
Format: Kindle Edition Verified Purchase
A thorough critique of religion, this book sets out to transcend its primacy and delusional nature and does just that with the emphasis on educating evolutionary biology and physics.
Having read previous Dawkins books 'the selfish gene', 'the blind watchmaker' and 'the fabric of reality', I can now appreciatively add this book to the list!

5.0 out of 5 starsBrilliant read.
By Mr Anthony C Brice on 8 Mar. 2015
Format: Kindle Edition Verified Purchase
I love the way Dawkins writes. He's able to paint the scene so clearly. It's thanks to him that I'm now on this path to begin understanding the truth about my world. I get annoyed when I try and offer up alternative perceptions to friends and family, they think I'm nuts. I used to think there may have been a God but that was before I had really given it any thought. It really is far more satisfying to think of the endless things to be learnt in science , and very funny to laugh at the fixed views of the religious.

4.0 out of 5 starsWould've been 5 star if it wasn't so brash and bullying with some of his arguments
By JWZE on 15 Feb. 2015
Format: Kindle Edition
His arguments are sound although they can be bullying
When talks about agnostics, he says the should "Pick a side."
Someone shouldn't have to pick a side if they don't have all of the facts.
I really enjoyed the book but that bit stops it being a 5 star book.

5.0 out of 5 starsThe quintessential book
By Dessum on 7 April 2014
Format: Kindle Edition Verified Purchase
Arguably the mother of all atheistic books. Eloquently written, stunningly cogent and a delight to read. Dawkins nails it with evidence, reason, rationality and a brilliantly presented argument. He makes everything clear and easy to understand. Top notch.

5.0 out of 5 starsWhat a wonderful book, why I didn't read it before?
By Maria Tenor on 30 Dec. 2012
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
I loved this book through and through, I was reading it and thinking that I must read it again! It is a very clear and easy to read even for me whose first language is not English; clear, concise where he needed to be, straight to the point and not too technical when it came to the scientific parts (which I very much appreciated since I am not a scientist myself), loads of further reading references, and very funny, it is a must read for EVERYONE that at any point in their lives have questioned the existence of God. In my opinion the best part of it was his approach to atheism is one of pride and being able to enjoy and appreciate life without the false promises of religious believes. Thank you Dr Dawkins.
