3.		The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit (Economy Editions) from Dover Publications Inc. Price: £9.99 Customer Review: Max Weber (1864-1920) had noticed that Protestants appeared excessively under the numbers of people who economically were successful.

5.		The British War on Terror: Terrorism and Counterterrorism on the Home Front Since 9-11 from Continuum International Publishing Group Ltd. Price: £6.99 Customer Review: I finished reading this brilliant book in 2 days. Too much of the literature on terrorism focuses on America.

6.		Atheist Universe: The Thinking Person's Answer to Christian Fundamentalism from Ulysses Press Price: £8.54 Customer Review: This is an absorbing and highly readable account. It's a serious study (tho with humour), written in a clear, accessible style. Rather than a book in defence of atheism, however, this book is a staunch attack on evangelical fundamentalism. Almost all of Mill's arguments are against Christian... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

7.		The Thirty Years' War 1618-1648 (Essential Histories) from Osprey Publishing Customer Review: I must admit that I'm not that big a fan of Osprey's military history books. I find they tend to be a hit or miss experience. The books are mostly fairly short, introductory type books and are supposed to present an overview of their topics. Sometimes, however, they get bogged down in explaining... more info	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

9.		The Next Christendom: The Coming of Global Christianity from OUP USA Price: £6.99 Customer Review: One of the beauties of modern scholarship is the relative dexterity with which one can analyse a `foreign' culture or some aspect thereof without the need to immerse oneself completely in it.

10.		Letter to a Christian Nation (Vintage) from Vintage Books USA Customer Review: Here, Harris responds to the thousands of mostly indignant letters he got for writing "The End of Faith". We might assume he is attacking a stereotype of Christianity, as a fanatically intolerant relic of the Dark Ages. But it seems these Christian letter writers really did convince him, quoting... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information
