Brief Candle in the Dark

The second and final part of Richard Dawkins's memoirs, following on from the critically acclaimed }An Appetite For Wonder{, which took readers up to the publication of }The Selfish Gene{ in 1976. He paints a vivid picture, coloured with wit, anecdote and digression, of the 25 postgraduate years he spent teaching at Oxford, his life as a travelling scientist visiting exotic locations, and his experience with his many publishers, TV producers, interviewers and partners in debate, not least in the heady period after the publication of }The God Delusion{ in 2006. Now in paperback
