The good book : a humanist bible
Grayling has distilled the work of hundreds of authors and more than one thousand texts using the same techniques ... that produced the holy books of the Judeo-Christian and Islamic religions. Their wit and advice, human stories, tragedies and yearnings, love and consolations are shaped into fourteen constituent parts that recall the Bible in structure: Genesis, Wisdom, Parables, Concord, Lamentations, Consolations, Sages, Songs, Histories, Proverbs, The Lawgiver, Acts, Epistles, and The Good ... For a secular age in which many find that religion no longer speaks to them, 'The Good Book' is a literary tour de force.

http://schema.org/description
- "Drawing from Eastern and Western philosophy and literature, professor A.C. Grayling offers this secular alternative to the Bible."
- "Grayling has distilled the work of hundreds of authors and more than one thousand texts using the same techniques ... that produced the holy books of the Judeo-Christian and Islamic religions. Their wit and advice, human stories, tragedies and yearnings, love and consolations are shaped into fourteen constituent parts that recall the Bible in structure: Genesis, Wisdom, Parables, Concord, Lamentations, Consolations, Sages, Songs, Histories, Proverbs, The Lawgiver, Acts, Epistles, and The Good ... For a secular age in which many find that religion no longer speaks to them, 'The Good Book' is a literary tour de force."@en
- "Published on the four hundredth anniversary of the King James Bible, The Good Book is a work of extraordinary audacity from a remarkable thinker--a secular humanist Bible drawn from the wisdom and inspiration in the world's great literature."@en
