New Atheism, Myth, and History

This book examines the misuse of history in New Atheism and militant anti-religion. In a number of detailed case studies, the book traces how these myths have long been overturned by historians, and argues that the New Atheism's cavalier use of history is indicative of a troubling approach to the humanities in general.

Aceasta carte examineaza utilizarea abuziva a istoriei in noul ateism si anti-religia militanta. Intr-o serie de studii de caz detaliate, cartea urmareste modul in care aceste mituri au fost rasturnate mult timp de istorici si sustine ca utilizarea cavalereasca a istoriei de catre noul ateism este indicativa pentru o abordare tulburatoare a stiintelor umaniste in general.
