'A book for our times.'

-- Polly Toynbee

'Peter Cave brings to a serious subject his characteristic wit and humour, as well as wide knowledge and sharp insight. This is a very readable introduction to humanism - and a deeply human one.'

-- Richard Norman, Emeritus Professor of Moral Philosophy, University of Kent

'An admirable guide for all those non-religious...who may wake up to the fact that they are humanists... What we have in common is, indeed, not faith but our humanity.'
