Albert Einstein,
Isaac
Asimov,
E.M.
Forster, Bertrand Russell,
and Gloria
Steinern all
declared themselves humanists. What
is humanism and why does it matter? Is there any doctrine
every humanist must hold? If it rejects religion, what does it
offer in its place? Have the twentieth century s crimes against
humanity spelled the end for humanism?
On Humanism is a timely and powerfully argued philosophical
defence of humanism. It is also an impassioned plea that we
turn to ourselves, not religion, if we want to answer Socrates*
age-old question: what is the best kind of life to lead? Although
humanism has much in common with science, Richard Norman
shows that it is far from a denial of the more mysterious, fragile
side of being human. He deals with big questions such as the
environment, Darwinism and creation science , euthanasia and
abortion, and then argues that it is ultimately through the
human capacity for art, literature and the imagination that
humanism is a powerful alternative to religious belief.
Drawing on a varied range of examples from Aristotle to
Primo Levi
and the novels of Virginia
Woolf
and Graham Swift,
On Humanism is a lucid and much needed reflection on this
much talked about but little understood phenomenon.
