Featuring Dawkin’s thoughts on the works of Carl Sagan, Lawrence Krauss, Jacob Bronowski, Lewis Wolpert, Books Do Furnish a Life celebrates the writers who communicate the ideas of science and the natural world in both fiction and non-fiction.
Dawkins is renowned for bringing complex science theory into pop culture, if not kicking and screaming, then certainly against preconceived ideals of what ‘stuffy’ science is.
His writings transcend textbook scrawls and have made their way onto bestselling lists the world over.
Never forgetting the “courage of those who write about their experiences of escaping religion and embracing rationality, of protecting the truths of science and analytical rigour against charlatanry and obfuscation” Dawkins again takes a specific language and makes it universal.
