Reviews:
It's sort of amazing how much insight can be placed in so small a book. Jen Hancock's Handbook is well organized and written in away to make the ideas of Humanism clear. I found myself drawn along and agreeing with Humanistic thought. I now place myself in a category that might be labelled as 'Spiritual Humanism.' Previously I considered myself a 'Universalist' but not really having a clear definition for that label. I highly recommend Jen's book to anyone who wishes to keep moving forward in or to kick-start their critical thinking and free-thought processes. I'm happy to have this gem of a book on my iPad as a quick reference resource. – J. Browne
Clear, precise talk on defining humanism without disrespecting other beliefs. Liked the short history and clarification of humanist principles. Highly recommend. – C. Abernathy
I had had only a vague idea of what a humanist was previous to reading this book. This book helped me determine that I was a humanist. I liked that the book is a 72 page fun and light read. – Titanium Dragon Turtle
A excellent concise introduction to Humanism, especially for people new to Humanism. Written in a very down to earth conversational tone, the explanations are clear and compelling. The resource guide at the end is also a rich source for further research. Highly recommended. – M. Frank
