  • Broschiertes Buch

An ambitious collection of essays, this compilation closely examines cultural issues of the 21st century that are concerned with humanity and how it is manipulated and exploited by capitalism, technology, politics, and religion. Arguing from an atheist and liberal point of view, this volume dissects biblical texts and confronts the influence of the literalists and creationists of modern religion. Political expediency, cultural imperialism, globalization, and "junk culture" are also rejected as suggestions for a more altruistic and sound society in this opinionated selection of essays.
