"Forty-four percent of the American population is convinced that Jesus will return to judge the living and the dead sometime in the next 50 years," writes Sam Harris. "Imagine the consequences if any significant component of the U.S. government actually believed that the world was about to end and that its ending would be glorious. The fact that nearly half of the American population apparently believes this...should be considered a moral and intellectual emergency."

Sam Harris—neuroscientist, philosopher, and bestselling author—has been exploring some of the most important questions about the human mind, society, and current events on his podcast, Making Sense. For Harris, honest conversation, no matter how difficult or controversial, represents the only path to moral and intellectual progress. This audiobook includes talks with Daniel Kahneman, Timothy Snyder, Nick Bostrom, and Glen Loury, on topics that range from the nature of consciousness and free will, to politics and extremism, to living ethically.

A belief in free will touches nearly everything that human beings value. It is difficult to think about law, politics, religion, public policy, intimate relationships, morality—as well as feelings of remorse or personal achievement—without first imagining that every person is the true source of his or her thoughts and actions. And yet the facts tell us that free will is an illusion.

Here is an impassioned plea for reason in a world divided by faith. This important and timely work delivers a startling analysis of the clash of faith and reason in today's world. Harris offers a vivid historical tour of mankind's willingness to suspend reason in favor of religious beliefs, even when those beliefs are used to justify harmful behavior and sometimes heinous crimes.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 433
As it was in Anna Karenina, Madame Bovary, and Othello, so it is in life. Most forms of private vice and public evil are kindled and sustained by lies. Acts of adultery and other personal betrayals, financial fraud, government corruption - even murder and genocide - generally require an additional moral defect: a willingness to lie. In Lying, bestselling author and neuroscientist Sam Harris argues that we can radically simplify our lives and improve society by merely telling the truth in situations where others often lie.

Publisher's Summary
In this short book, Sam Harris and Maajid Nawaz invite you to join an urgently needed conversation: Is Islam a religion of peace or war? Is it amenable to reform? Why do so many Muslims seem drawn to extremism? What do words like Islamism, jihadism, and fundamentalism mean in today's world?
Remarkable for the breadth and depth of its analysis, this dialogue between a famous atheist and a former radical is all the more startling for its decorum. Harris and Nawaz have produced something genuinely new: they engage one of the most polarizing issues of our time - fearlessly and fully - and actually make progress.
Islam and the Future of Tolerance has been published with the explicit goal of inspiring a wider public discussion by way of example. In a world riven by misunderstanding and violence, Harris and Nawaz demonstrate how two people with very different views can find common ground.

A Little Robotic
The basic reading of the book is a little robotic. I love listening to their dialogue at the end of the book much more than the reading.

Incredible and insightful
As a young Canadian from northern Ontario, I'm quite ignorant on the subject of Islam. Most of what I know was learned through the media, and the greater issues seemed large and disheartening. This dialogue cleared up a lot of my confusion, and made these topics seem a lot more approachable. Experiencing a book with more than one perspective on the subject matter was refreshing, and I hope to see more people emulating this method of discussion.

An eye opener.
I feel like I now have a good foundation for understanding the difference between Islamists, Muslims, Jihadists and more. What an important and dangerous dialogue Sam and Maajid have opened up. I hope it leads to more.

Must read for all Muslims
I hope that all of my fellow Muslims read this book, no matter where they are on the spectrum of Islamic beliefs/ideologies. This is also a must read for any non-Muslims and interested in understanding the various political debates that exist among Muslims.

A fascinating and valuable dialogue.
Inciteful. And this reader at least, detected no antagonism between Harris and Nawaz whatsoever. They displayed only a mutual respect. Particularly touching is the apparent 'bromance' that evidentially grew out of their dialogue.

An important book
The book does a excellent job of establishing a theoretical framework on examining Islam as a whole. I would recommend this book to anyone who wants to develop an understanding for Islam. Although rudimentary, it’s a great starting ground for westerners to start articulating what is going on in the Muslim world.

Its a Podcast not an Audio book
I am a big fan of Sam Harris and also love what Maajid Nawaz has to say but calling and selling this as an audiobook I think is deceptively oversimplifying. This is a podcast where two people are having a conversation. A book in my understanding is a deliberately edited planned message whereas this is just a long conversation between two people. Yes I get it it does say A Dialogue in the title but I guess I am a bit old fashioned and was actually expecting a book.

too short
This is arguably the most important conversation of our time. I wish it were much longer and in-depth. It's basically a Joe Rogan podcast for purchase.
