Religion for Atheists

Forum for European Philosophy public lecture


Is it possible to remain a committed atheist but nevertheless benefit from the wisdom of religion? Marking the publication of his new book Religion for Atheists|, Alain de Botton proposes that we look to religions for insights into how we might live in and arrange our societies.

Alain de Botton is the author of non-fiction essays on themes ranging from love and travel to architecture and philosophy. His bestselling books include The Architecture of Happiness.
