This compact, forcefully argued work calls Sam Harris, Richard
Dawkins, Steven Pinker, and the rest of the so-called 'New
Atheists' to account for failing to take seriously the historical
record to which they so freely appeal when attacking religion. The
popularity of such books as Harris's The End of Faith, Dawkins's
The God Delusion, and Christopher Hitchens' God Is Not Great set
off a spate of reviews, articles, and books for and against, yet in
all the controversy little attention has focused on the historical
evidence and arguments they present to buttress their case. This
book is the first to challenge in depth the distortions of this New
Atheist history. It presents the evidence that the three authors
and their allies ignore. It points out the lack of historical
credibility in their work when judged by the conventional criteria
used by mainstream historians. It does not deal with the debate
over theism and atheism nor does it aim to defend the historical
record of Christianity or religion more generally. It does aim to
defend the integrity of history as a discipline in the face of its
distortion by those who violate it.
