Beschreibung
A significant number of Americans view atheists as immoral elitists, aloof and unconcerned with the common good, and they view science and scientists as responsible. Many in the public think that all scientists are atheists and that all atheist scientists are New Atheists, militantly against religion and religious people. But what do everyday atheist scientists actually think about religion? The research presented in this book shows that there are varieties of atheism among scientists and that not all atheist scientists see conflict between science and religion.
