The rise and fall of modern atheism

Join us as we explore modern atheism - from its origins in the Enlightenment to the present day, when religion is experiencing an unexpected resurgence. Although traces of the lightening of society can be found as early as antiquity, it is only in modern times, and especially in the 19th and 20th centuries, that atheism has emerged as a mass phenomenon, and in some places even as an official ideology. Yet religion continues, and sometimes even atheism itself takes on religious forms because they are an anthropological constant. The book is a clear and readable text where the theory is supported by examples and historical events.
