"The Secularist’s Bible: And Other Astonishing Absurdities by Stan Biderman is a sharp, unconventional work of nonfiction built entirely as a dialogue between two voices, Saba, the reflective elder, and Pfoot, his teasing alter ego, as they work through faith, democracy, and the boundary between church and state.

Biderman grew up the child of Holocaust survivors and later built a career in law and urban redevelopment. He draws on decades of personal notes he calls "bits," fragments of insight jotted down on sticky notes and napkins over thirty-five years, as the raw material for the book's arguments.

Readers drawn to opinionated, personality-driven nonfiction that mixes memoir with cultural commentary will find this an engaging read."
