“THE young man boards the bus as it leaves the terminal.”
Sam Harris (born 1967) is an American non-fiction writer, neuroscientist and proponent of scientific skepticism. He is the author of *The End of Faith* (2004), which won the 2005 PEN/Martha Albrand Award, and *Letter to a Christian Nation* (2006), a rejoinder to the criticism his first book attracted.
