Known as the?four horsemen? of New Atheism, these four big thinkers of the twenty-first
century met only once. Their electrifying examination of ideas on this remarkable
occasion was intense and wide-ranging. Everything that was said as they agreed and
disagreed with one another, interrogated ideas and exchanged insights? about religion
and atheism, science and sense? speaks with urgency to our present age. Questions
they asked of each other included:?Is it ever possible to win a war of ideas? Is spirituality
the preserve of the religious? Are there any truths you would rather not know? Would
you want to see the end of faith?? The dialogue was recorded, and is now transcribed
and presented here with new introductions from the surviving three horsemen. With
a sparkling introduction from Stephen Fry, it makes essential reading for all their
admirers and for anyone interested in exploring the tensions between faith and reason
