The God Delusion by Richard Dawkins
کتاب پندار خدا یکی از بهترین کتاب هایی است که تا به حال خوانده ام. نه تنها از نظر محتوا بلکه از نظر طرز نگارش یک کتاب گیرا و پربار است. راستش برای نخستین بار من نگارش انگلیسی آن را خواندم. پس از مدت کوتاهی با کمی جستجو در گوگل متوجه شدم که این کتاب به فارسی هم ترجمه شده است. تارنمای سکولاریسم برای ایران آن را به فارسی ترجمه کرده بود. خیلی از این کار خوشحال شدم. وقتی ترجمه را دیدم بیشتر خوشحال شدم! زیراکه ترجمه بسیار عالی و حرفه ای بود. برای کسانی که می خواهند ا ...more

This was a great book.

This book will be in my top five that actually changed mt life! This guy as an avowed atheist, however, he knows the Bible

Dawkins makes a clear, unassailable argument that god is highly implausible. If you are an atheist, you will find this book immensely readable and satisfying, but it won't offer any new ideas to you. If you are strongly religious, you will find this book immensely frustrating, and it won't change your mind about anything. If you are on the fence, however, Dawkin's book might offer you something more profound.

Good book covers all the esentials but if you're already familiar with the arguments it doesn't add a whole lot new.
