Can we be good without God? -- A brief history of goodness without God, or a short campus tour of the university of humanism -- Why be good without a God? : purpose and The plague -- Good without God : a how-to guide to the ethics of humanism -- Pluralism : can you be good with God? -- Good without God in community : the heart of humanism -- Postscript: Humanism and its aspirations.

Author Greg Epstein, the Humanist chaplain at Harvard, offers a world view for nonbelievers that dispenses with the hostility and intolerance of religion prevalent in national bestsellers like God is Not Great and The God Delusion. Epstein's Good Without God provides a constructive, challenging response to these manifestos by getting to the heart of Humanism and its positive belief in tolerance, community, morality, and good without having to rely on the guidance of a higher being.--From publisher description.
