Praise for Journey to Reason

"A gripping, personal account of one man's journey from myth to fact... Journey to Reason is a book that should be read by anyone who... wants to engage with science and reason. A fascinating read and one that I can thoroughly recommend."

-- Dr. Tim Coulson, Professor of Zoology, Joint Head of the Department of Biology, University of Oxford

"Alsip is concerned for all the other children like him, who want the chance to learn about other ways of thinking. If only one such child discovers this kind and careful book and learns that the world is bigger, with more options, than they have been taught, it will have done a good deed. As both an educator in Higher Education and an Elder in my church, I recommend this book unreservedly."

-- Dr. Diana Jeater, Professor of African History, University of Liverpool. Fellow of The Royal Historical Society. Doctor of Philosophy (Oxford University). Elder, Liverpool Quaker Meeting.

"The most important book of the last decade, which sheds light on America's slow descent into normalising the beliefs of Bronze Age people."

-- Robert Shaw, Master of Science, Oxford University. Host of the Unshaw Podcast.

"[Alsip's] message resonates in 2024, where the division between fundamentalist evangelicals and science is blaring and causing much of the political rift we see today. ... Mark's humor is refreshing, his wit infectious, and his science flawless. ... The ending brought tears to my eyes."

Jan McCleery, author of the Juno Wolfe spy novels: The Secret Lives of Jessie Monroe. Founder, Save the California Delta Alliance.


"Reading this book is a master lesson in how to coexist with people who see our very complicated world as either good or evil… Even those of us who can tear apart religious apologetics in our sleep have much to learn from Mark Alsip."

-- Pamela Whissel, Managing Director of the Campaign to End Religious Abuse of Children
