In the Mailbox: No One Sees God by Michael Novak

The fine folks at DoubleDay Religion sent me an advance copy of Michael Novak's new book No One Sees God: The Dark Night of Atheists and Believers, where he responds to the new athiests (Hitchens, Dawkins, etc.).
It's one of the best new reads I've come across in awhile, and I would highly recommend placing an advance order (it ships August 5th).
Novak explains the purpose of his book in an interview published by First Things here. And he does so again with this column published in the Washington Post.
Two points I've noticed: Novak remains courteous in making his arguments (something the new athiests would do well to mimic), and he speaks about the challenges faced by believers and non-believers alike.
