The assertive secular humanism in recent years has damaged the social and cultural fabric of many western nations and has opened the door to creeping totalitarianism. This short history book, written from a Christian viewpoint with a critical political flavour, highlights the current trends and where they are leading. John Hawkins suggests maybe the time has come when men and women of faith can shake off 150 years of subservience to secularism and invites us to consider how science, liberty and human relations generally have flourished and been nurtured in an openly Christian environment. Looking at the history of the last 200 years believers can cease apologising for their existence and proclaim the God of love who can rescue a seemingly hopeless culture from further degeneration.
