Religion clings to the supernatural for psychological comfort. In Adieu to God, Mick Powers provides a fair and balanced exploration of why this continues to be the case despite science's repeated disproval of supernatural forces. Approaching religion through a psychological and social lens, and also incorporating current research in sociology, anthropology, psychiatry, and medicine, Powers assesses the psychological motivations for religious faith--and outlines strategies for dealing with today's world without the security blanket of organized religion.
Adieu to God examines atheism from a psychological perspective and reveals how religious phenomena and beliefs are psychological rather than supernatural in origin.
Answers the psychological question of why, in the face of overwhelming scientific evidence to the contrary, do religions continue to prosper?
Looks at atheism and religion using a fair and balanced approach based on the latest work in psychology, sociology, anthropology, psychiatry and medicine
Acknowledges the many psychological benefits of religion while still questioning the validity of its supernatural belief systems and providing atheist alternatives to a fulfilling life

Dawkins and Dennett taught us that there's no room for God in biology. Stenger and Hawking taught us that there's no room for God in cosmology either. Now Mick Power pushes God out of his last safe haven: the human mind. Power has written a great little book, showing that psychology is just as much of a threat to religious belief as evolutionary theory and cosmology. Fundamentalists are going to lose a lot of sleep over this one!" -- Dr. Steve Stewart-Williams, Lecturer in Psychology, Swansea University, UK
"In Adieu to God, Mick Power gives a powerful and humane account of the case for atheism from an under-explored angle." -- Andrew Copson, Chief Executive, British Humanist Association, UK

"In this fascinating little book (201 pages, including references and a subject index), Mick Power communicates no such tinge of agnosticism when proclaiming in the preface of Adieu to God: Why Psychology Leads to Atheismthat "my belief is that psychology (with help from philosophy, anthropology, sociology, physics, biology . . .) offers a far more powerful explanation than any religious system ever will" (p.x)."

"His final chapter summarises the argument and proposes how one might be a healthy atheist with a sense of meaning and purpose, a sense of belonging and community and a set of personal goals and values. He does not forecast the disappearance of religions but proposes how they can be explained in terms of psychology and sociology." (The Scientific & Medical Network, 1 April 2012)
