Exploring the ancient Mediterranean, Tim Whitmarsh uncovers the origins of atheism, challenging the notion that it began with the Enlightenment. He highlights the early voices of freethinkers who rejected divine belief, revealing a rich tradition of nonbelief that predates modern secularism. By examining the first thousand years of atheism, the book emphasizes the historical depth of disbelief and introduces its own set of heroes, offering a fresh perspective on a long-standing philosophical stance.
