BRIEF CANDLE IN THE WIND: MY LIFE IN SCIENCE by RICHARD DAWKINS (1st US Ed. HC)

Description: We Take Pride in our Packaging LEADING ATHEIST OUTLINES HIS INTELLECTUAL JOURNEY THE AUTHOR OF THIS MEMOIR, RICHARD DAWKINS, has never been afraid to express his opinions and, with his highly entertaining and influential books, is a leading critic of creationism and intelligent design and an ardent atheist. He is an emeritus Oxford fellow who penned the ground-breaking The Selfish Gene that popularized the gene-focused look at evolution. Another of his works that caused an international stir was the bestseller The God Delusion. In this book, Dawkins describes his life of intellectual adventure and gives fascinating insights into the personalities he has encountered along the way - including Douglas Adams, Christopher Hitchens and Richard Leakey. Currently, he declines to debate publicly with creationists on the grounds that such debates merely give the creationists the oxygen of publicity they crave. THIS FIRST AMERICAN EDITION is in excellent condition with clean, crisp and unmarked pages, a firm and square hardcover binding and an intact dust-jacket. Photographs, mostly in color, illustrate the text and a general index is provided. There are no signs of previous ownership such as an inscription or bookplate.
