Agnosticism: A Very Short IntroductionWhat is agnosticism? Is it a belief, or merely the absence of belief? Is it the result of too little thought about an issue or too much? Who were the first to call themselves "agnostics"? Does agnosticism deserve serious consideration today? Can an agnostic live a religious life? What place should agnosticism have in education?

What is agnosticism? Is it a belief, or merely the absence of belief? Is it the result of too little thought about an issue--or too much? Who were the first to call themselves "agnostics"? Does agnosticism deserve serious consideration today? Can an agnostic live a religious life? What place should agnosticism have in education? These are just some of the questions that Robin Le Poidevin considers in this Very Short Introduction, as he sets the philosophical case for agnosticism and explores it as a historical and cultural phenomenon. Agnosticism emerges here as a much more sophisticated, and much more interesting, attitude than a simple failure to either commit to, or reject, religious belief. Le Poidevin challenges the common wisdom about agnosticism among both believers and atheists, and invites the reader to rethink their own position on the issues. Indeed, in arguing in favor of agnosticism as a respectable position to take, this stimulating and provocative guide takes issue on many points with the assertions of prominent atheists such as Richard Dawkins.

Don't leave home without it!
Style: SPF 50, Size: 10 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This sunscreen has been a lifesaver for me. I'm an avid kayaker, have a very fair complexion and hate wearing hats, so I'd be toast (literally) without this. I'm also now allergic to fragrance and several commonly used preservatives, so to find that this sunscreen has no fragrance and none of the suspect additives was a joy. It goes on lightly, rubs in easily and seems to really hold up protecting my skin for 2-3 hour trips on the lake. I never leave home without it. The only drawback I have is that it's sometimes cumbersome, or difficult to get the top to line up correctly in order to spray it and it can be unwieldy trying to do this with one hand. I haven't found anything better, and really appreciate that it's available and not at an outrageous price either.

spray top lids fail after a few uses
Style: SPF 50, Size: 10 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This sunscreen is awesome. It stays on for a long time, even when swimming. It has almost no odor, which is great if you don't want to walk around with that summer sun screen smell. The reason I am giving this only one star is because of the canister. The spray top lid is very hard to press, and only works a few times before completely jamming, rendering the product useless. This is a huge problem if you are taking it on a river float, or camping where you can't just run out to the store and get another one if it stops working. I love this sunscreen and I really wish I could make it my summer go to, but have had so many of the lids malfunction that I will never buy this product again. It is expensive for sunscreen. They should figure out their packaging.

a fave
Style: SPF 50, Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Disappears into skin quickly, feels like nothing, looks like nothing (no white residue, streaks or discoloration). The fragrance free truly is. I reapply after a couple of hours or prolonged time in salt water even though I don't _feel_ like I need to (I'm not naturally pale) and have not had any burns since I started using Alba products, whereas before, I got occasional burns even from the better, former favorite, brands. I love this brand and the products are prominent on my subscribe and save lists. Once in a blue moon, the spray lid sticks and the can goes in the trash. BUT this happens once in a blue moon with just about every brand I've tried.

Great, when the can works
Style: SPF 50, Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This is the only sunscreen I buy anymore. Clear, easy to use and no significant smell. Plus air powered spray and biodegradable. No of which matters, though, when the can won't spray at all or just gives a weak spray that leaves sunscreen in wet spots or no coverage on your arms. Too expensive to not work.

excellent for oily or acne prone skin
Style: SPF 50, Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
my skin type is highly reactive to sunscreen and I often have to juggle the desire for sun protection with awful break outs the next day. this is so far the only spray sunblock that's not stupid expensive that hasn't caused acne. only complaint is that it seems there's not much of the actual product in the can, but that could be due to the fact that I use a lot of it. 10/10
