He is a neuroscientist, philosopher, best-selling author,
reluctant leader of the New Atheist Movement, an unwavering
advocate of reason and intellectual honesty, and one of the
most important proponents of Buddhist thought, specifically
meditation, compassion, and shakubuku (critical analysis and

science toward Buddhism and Buddhism toward science, speaking
to each group separately. He believes religion can progress
through the process of reason and critical analysis.
