Marxist revolutionary Bhagat Singh penned this profound indictment of religion as he languished in an Indian prison awaiting execution. \u00a0Accused of \u201carrogant pride and vanity\u201d by critics who decried his sustained repudiation of theism, Bhagat Singh authored this compelling manifesto in an effort to articulate and expound upon his opinions on life and struggle. \u00a0Laden with polemics which lend new perspectives on fundamental philosophical questions of revolutionary theory, \u201cWhy I Am An Atheist\u201d is a stirring argument against religious mysticism and dogma of every sort.<\/p>\n
Presented in a convenient, pocket-sized booklet, this concise volume also includes a biographical sketch of\u00a0\u201cShaheed\u201d (Martyr) Bhagat Singh.<\/p>\n
