McCabe, Joseph.

A Rationalist Encyclopedia: A Book of Reference on Religion, Philosophy, Ethics, and Science (London: Watts & Co., 1950). “The distinctive feature of this book,” states the foreword, “is that it challenges the widespread conviction that all that is most precious in our civilization has been derived from Christianity.” In over 600 pages, with alphabetical listings, McCabe names and describes the legends without their halo. It should be noted that many now consider parts of the work obsolete because it contains errors (such as inclusion of the Piltdown Man as being authentic, which fooled many at that time, including Sir Arthur Keith).
