I've read this in a prior edition back in 2006. I'm looking forward to a re-read, now that I have some more scientific knowledge under my belt. Since I read this, I've pretty much moved entirely into the naturalist camp. Nature needs no gods to work. If anything just 'is', it's the universe itself, and it cares naught for us.

And might I add that this edition is particularly spectacular? I can't wait to look at all the pretty pictures.
