Irreligion: A Mathematician Explains Why the Arguments for God Just Don't Add Up
John Allen Paulos
Hill and Wang
, 2008
the logician
Paulos is first rate. His humor and anecdotal style stands out - whether it be the stock market or religion, or Irreligion in this case, Paulos keeps me hooked. He is concise and precise as you might expect from a Math prof, but he really stands out for me as a ...

A Rulebook for Arguments
Anthony Weston
Hackett Pub Co Inc
, 2000
Makes a terrible doorstop, so you may as well read it...
Everyone needs critical thinking. But who wants to learn it? Most books drone on and on about this or that rule with esoteric Latin terms seeping from every page. In such cases, critical thinking would suggest astute readers close the book and convert it to a doorstop. ...
A Supposedly Fun Thing I'll Never Do Again: Essays and Arguments
David Foster Wallace
Back Bay Books
, 1998
Literate Gonzo
David Foster Wallace--may he R.I.P.--is one of my very favourite non-fiction writers. I'd categorize his style as a sort-of literate new journalism; while DFW is definately the main character of every essay here (even when he's purportedly talking about, say, David ...

This book is INCREDIBLE!
Calling all females- forget the romantic vampire books, this series is all you can want! Easy to read, romance, action, fighting, not too much magic. This book is so good that I can't stop reading it at night. The character development is unusually good, with unique ...

Jamie Whyte
McGraw-Hill
, 2004
Excellent Book
After reading this book and then noticing some of the negative reviews, I was perplexed as to why. So I clicked on the lower reviews and noticed a common theme; they're all upset about Whyte's attempt to diminish Christianity and religion as a whole. So for readers who ...
