Brief History of Disbelief - Jonathan Miller - BBC: In this first ever television history of disbelief, Jonathan Miller goes on a journey exploring the origins of his own lack of belief and uncovering the hidden story of atheism. The bulk of the presentation is a historical review of atheism in the West with asides to the author's personal experience. Miller notes, as is implicit in the titles how late frank Atheism was in emerging in the modern West, with none willing to state flat rejection of God until Baron d'Holbach. He examines why d'Hobach is not better known, celebrated.
