Book description
42 atheist celebrities, comedians, scientists and writers give their
funny and serious tips for enjoying the Christmas season.
When the Atheist Bus Campaign was first launched, over £150,000, was
raised in four days - enough to place the advert 'There's probably no
God. Now stop worrying and enjoy your life' on 800 UK buses in January
2009. Now dozens of atheist writers, comedians and scientists are
joining together to raise money for a very different cause.
The Atheist's Guide to Christmas is a funny, thoughtful handbook all
about enjoying Christmas, from 42 of the world's most entertaining
atheists. It features everything from an atheist Christmas miracle to a
guide to the best Christmas pop hits, and contributors include Richard
Dawkins, Charlie Brooker, Derren Brown, Ben Goldacre, Jenny Colgan,
David Baddiel, Simon Singh, AC Grayling, Brian Cox and Richard Herring.
The full book advance and all royalties will go to the UK HIV charity
Terrence Higgins Trust. Ariane Sherine is a British comedy writer,
journalist and the creator of the Atheist Bus Campaign.
