Richard Dawkins, C. S. Lewis and the Meaning of Life
«The Dawkins Delusion? (SPCK, 2007): Addressing the conclusions of The God Delusion point by point with the devastating insight of a molecular biologist turned theologian, Alison McGrath dismantles the argument that science should lead to atheism, and demonstrates instead that Dawkins has abandoned his much-cherished rationality to embrace an embittered manifest of dogmatic atheist fundamentalism.»
Francis Collins, Director of the National Institutes of Health, USA
In this pithy, entertaining guide to what really matters, Alister McGrath brings together Richard Dawkins and C.S. Lewis, two intriguing and well-known writers, in 'conversation'.
The two men could hardly have more different perspectives; these arguments provide an excellent means of sharpening our own thinking on the meaning of life.

Francis Collins, Director of the National Institutes of Health, USA
«Richard Dawkins' utopian vision of a world without religion is here deftly punctured by McGrath's informed discourse. His fellow Oxonian clearly demonstrates the gaps, inconsistencies and surprising lack of depth in Dawkins' arguments.»
Owen Gingerich, Professor Emeritus of Astronomy and History of Science, Harvard University
«C. S. Lewis: A Life: Eccentric Genius, Reluctant Prophet (Hodder, 2013): McGrath's lucid and unsentimental portrait . . . offers a new and at times shocking look into the complicated life of this complex figure, in a deeply researched biography. He shows with skill, sympathy, dispassion, and engaging prose that Lewis, like the rest of us, did the best he could with the hand he was dealt.»
Publishers Weekly, starred review
«McGrath's book will gain a permanent position in Lewis scholarship for his brilliant and, to my mind, undeniable re-dating of Lewis's conversion to Theism. How we all missed this for so long is astonishing!»
Michael Ward, author of Planet Narnia
«This biography is the one Lewis's admirers - especially those who, like him, believe that books are to be read and enjoyed - should prefer to all others.»
(Booklist, starred review)
«A fine, dense, yet very clear account, from [McGrath's] particular Christian perspective, of the full case against Dawkins.»
Bryan Appleyard, New Scientist
«The God Delusion makes me embarrassed to be an atheist, and the McGraths show why.»
Michael Ruse, Professor of History and Philosophy of Science Program, Florida State University
