Book Reviews of Letter to a Christian Nation
Book Review: "The End of Faith" was 75% Better
Summary: 3 Stars
This book is really just a subset of Harris' previous book. "The End of Faith". As a result, a lot of the most challenging material has been stripped out. If I were less charitable, I would accuse Harris of dumbing-down his previous book (this would be a criticism of Harris' intended reader, not his work -- pay careful attention to the title here, folks). This is not to say that Harris is less strident in his atheism, but there is much less supporting material here.
Ironically, I feel that this lack of bulk makes "Letter to a Christian Nation" more polemical than "The End of Faith." That book presented a lot of information which challenged my existing beliefs but I found it well reasoned and supported. This book lacks that supporting material while making the same arguments.
