Whether understood in a narrow sense as the popular works of a small number of (white male) authors, or as a larger more diffuse movement, twenty-first century scholars, journalists, and activists from all "sides' in the atheism versus theism debate, have noted the emergence of a particular form of atheism frequently dubbed "New Atheism'. The present collection has been brought together to provide a scholarly yet accessible consideration of the place and impact of "New Atheism' in the contemporary world.
