Use it for established scholarly facts about a named organized unbelief movement a chapter directly covers; coverage depends on which chapter addresses a given topic, so a claim about an organization or movement this handbook does not name needs a different source.FactsCross-Tradition ConnectionsClaims Backed By This Source (165 claims)Comments (0)Reader Challenges (0 open reader challenges)FactsAssessmentReliability TierWell-attested1A scholarly reference handbook with chapters from named specialists on organized unbelief, cited specifically as the authority for Ethical Culture, the American Humanist Association, Humanists International and the New Atheism, each addressed by a contributor working directly in that area.NotesWell-attestedScholarly reference on organised unbelief; the authority here for Ethical Culture, the American Humanist Association, Humanists International and the New Atheism.CitationAuthorWell-attestedStephen Bullivant and Michael Ruse (eds.)PublisherWell-attestedOxford University PressPublication YearWell-attested2013Source TypeWell-attestedreferenceCross-Tradition ConnectionsAssociated WithAmerican Humanist Association, Denominations Well-attested This source names American Humanist Association directly: "the authority for Ethical Culture, the American Humanist Association, Humanists International and the New Atheism movement, each addressed by a contributor working directly in that specific area."Source The Oxford Handbook of AtheismStephen Bullivant and Michael Ruse (eds.)tier 1Ethical Culture, Denominations Well-attested This source names Ethical Culture directly: "it specifically as the authority for Ethical Culture, the American Humanist Association, Humanists International and the New Atheism movement, each addressed by a contributor working directly in..."Source The Oxford Handbook of AtheismStephen Bullivant and Michael Ruse (eds.)tier 1Humanists International, Denominations Well-attested This source names Humanists International directly: "the American Humanist Association, Humanists International and the New Atheism movement, each addressed by a contributor working directly in that specific area."Source The Oxford Handbook of AtheismStephen Bullivant and Michael Ruse (eds.)tier 1New Atheism, Denominations Well-attested This source names New Atheism directly: "Humanists International and the New Atheism movement, each addressed by a contributor working directly in that specific area."Source The Oxford Handbook of AtheismStephen Bullivant and Michael Ruse (eds.)tier 1Claims Backed By This Source (165 claims)This source backs 165 claims across the atlas.
