The Science Delusion by Curtis White

In The Science Delusion, Curtis White argues that the rich philosophical debates of the 19th century have been almost totally abandoned. People no longer wonder why is there something instead of nothing?' or 'what is our purpose on earth?'. Instead, students are taught that science can resolve all questions without the aid of philosophy, politics or the humanities. It's a message echoed in the work of the recent glut of bestselling 'new atheists'.'

Memories of My Father Watching TV and Requiem are two novels by Curtis White. He is a well-known essayist whose work has appeared in publications such as Context and Harper's. He is the current president of the Center for Book Culture/Dalkey Archive Press and an English professor at Illinois State University.
