In the seminal text on atheism in the twenty-first centuy, renowned scientist Richard Dawkins examines the irrationality of believing in God and the grievous harm religion has inflicted on society.
From the sex-obsessed tyrant in the Old Testament to the more benign Celestial Watchmaker favored by some Enlightenment thinkers, Dawkins rigorously analyzes God in all his forms, eviscerating the major arguments for religion and demonstrating the supreme improbability of a supreme being. His argument steeped in impressive historical and contemporary evidence, spanning from the Crusades to 9/11, Dawkins shows how religion fuels war and foments bigotry, and makes the compelling case that belief in God is not just wrong but potentially deadly. As a solution, Dawkins offers exhilarating insight into the advantages of atheism for the individual and society, not the least of which is a clearer, truer appreciation of the universe's wonders than any faith could ever muster.

A bit of context, I am about halfway through the book (before the morality part), reading the book in German (the title being 'Gotteswahnsinn' [literal translation being 'Craziness about god]).
I love Dawkin writing without caring whether or not he hurts someone's feelings, even more so because he makes it funny.
He has got great points and is a talented writer with a lot of experience in his field.

I think it is the same as with "god is not great" by Christopher Hitchens, for atheists it sure hasn't got many new things that they don't know, but it still, in my opinion, is better. More comfortable to read.
