In his most controversial book yet, "New York Times"-bestselling author Bugliosi ("Helter Skelter") turns his critical eye on both religious believers and the atheists who reflexively oppose them, and offers a provocative look at agnosticism. 256 pp. 100,000 print.
Reviews / Votes
"I found myself following my wife around the house reading passages of Bugliosi's book to her out loud. I wish I'd written this wonderfully funny deeply moving antidote to the false certainties -- both religious and irreligious -- that have divided our society into warring camps yammering at each other about things no one understands."
--Frank Schaeffer "New York Times" bestselling author of "Crazy for God: How I Grew Up as One of the Elect, Helped Found the Religious Right, and Lived to Take All (or Almost All) of It Back"
"Always eloquent, this is a fascinating read."
--"Publishers Weekly"
"Bugliosi's arguments, while familiar, are well-reasoned, clearly presented, and provide a good introductory survey of the theist-versus-atheist-versus-agnostic debate."

County District Attorney's office, he successfully prosecuted 105 of 106 felony jury trials, including twenty-one murder convictions without a single loss. His most famous trial, the Charles Manson case, became the basis of his classic, Helter Skelter, the biggest selling true crime book in publishing history.
