Book Description (see Amazon or Librarything for customer reviews etc):

Discover magazine recently called Richard Dawkins "Darwin's Rottweiler" for his fierce and effective defense of evolution.

Date added: 08/02/2011  Edition: Black Swan 2007

User Description: A passionately argued book - however, if you do manage to set aside his at times much too aggresive tone, you will find clever arguments for why atheists can be “happy, balanced, moral, and intellectually fulfilled” in the absence of religion.

User Description: I found this book hard going to be honest. But it does make some interesting points, even if you don't agree with the method of delivery. Dawkins comes across as quite angry and bitter, which is a shame as it seems to take away some of the rationality of his argument. Worth a read though, whether you agree with the sentiment or not, worth seeing what the fuss is about.
