Description
English biologist Richard Dawkins uses his professional background in zoology to illustrate complex topics such as genetics and evolution cogently in a way that lay readers can understand. But he has attracted far more fame -- and infamy -- than most science writers, because he also writes about the tensions between science and religion. Drawing on fields such as ethology, history, and sociology, Dawkins argues against religious belief and in favor of atheism. Start with: The Selfish Gene (science); The God Delusion (religion)
