Richard Dawkins is the best-known representative of scientific atheism, and I have interacted with him in various formats. The two most important published works are:

Alister E. McGrath, Dawkins's God: Genes, Memes and the Meaning of Life. Oxford: Blackwell, 2004

Alister McGrath and Joanna Collicutt McGrath, The Dawkins Delusion? Atheist Fundamentalism and the Denial of the Divine. London: SPCK, 2007, and Downers Grove, IL: InterVarsity Press, 2007.

The first of these works represents a scholarly account and assessment of Richard Dawkins' views on the relation of science and religion up to the publication of A Devil's Chaplain (2003). The second is a specific response to The God Delusion (2006), and is written in a more popular style.
