Reviews:

It's sort of amazing how much insight can be placed in so small a book. Jen Hancock's Handbook is well organized and written in away to make the ideas of Humanism clear. I found myself drawn along and agreeing with Humanistic thought. I now place myself in a category that might be labelled as 'Spiritual Humanism.' Previously I considered myself a 'Universalist' but not really having a clear definition for that label. I highly recommend Jen's book to anyone who wishes to keep moving forward in or to kick-start their critical thinking and free-thought processes. I'm happy to have this gem of a book on my iPad as a quick reference resource. - J. Browne

Hancock gives an easily understandable explanation of humanism. It is amazing that ideas so simple seem to be so difficult for so many people to get. One of the hardest ideas for humanists to explain is the idea of being good just because it is the right thing. There is no need for a feared punisher. Anonymous

This is a short book that is big on ideas. For those of a Humanist bent this is a great checklist and reminder of the various responsibilities we carry to ensure moral action. (Actions are more important than ideas.) For those who don't know or understand Humanism, this is a fast, non threatening way to see the whole picture. - M. Fuchs

This short little book is really more of an extended essay, which is fine, since that makes it that much easier to digest. Its tone is conversational and it's quite accessible. An in-depth treatment of humanism it's not, but for anyone looking for an easy-to-read introduction that covers the bases, this'll do. - T. Lee

Clear, precise talk on defining humanism without disrespecting other beliefs. Liked the short history and clarification of humanist principles. Highly recommend. - C. Abernathy

I had had only a vague idea of what a humanist was previous to reading this book. This book helped me determine that I was a humanist. I liked that the book is a 72 page fun and light read. - Titanium Dragon Turtle

A excellent concise introduction to Humanism, especially for people new to Humanism. Written in a very down to earth conversational tone, the explanations are clear and compelling. The resource guide at the end is also a rich source for further research. Highly recommended. - M. Frank
