A bible for atheists is about how to be a good human if one doesn't believe in gods or God. It states positively what many atheists believe. In this improved second edition, it puts forth a system of belief based on reason and science and common sense into a coherent structure, starting from basic principles, to answer the big questions about our human origins, the puzzle of fate and free will, ethics, how to manage the emotions, why some binds bring new capabilities, friendship, love and mating, the nature of beauty, constructive thinking, rights and freedom and liberty, and more. It synthesizes philosophical ideas with religious thinking shorn of their supernatural aspects.

A few of the many topics covered, in no particular order, include: why the sun spins, how life sprang from inanimate chemicals, why humans dominate the Earth, how Leonardo da Vinci created the Mona Lisa, the rules of life, why we die, why humans believe in religion, why we won't meet aliens, how to cultivate wisdom, why sunsets are beautiful, how the idea of lifting an arm lifts an arm, the flirting formula, the essence of citizenship, why symmetrical faces are beautiful, how top performers practice, keys to career success, and the meaning of life. It is ideal for young persons starting out in life, and for older persons seeking greater understanding.
