Dawkins, Richard
The Oxford Book of Modern Science Writing
This is a rich and vibrant collection that captures the poetry and excitement of communicating scientific understanding and scientific effort from 1900 to the present day. Professor Dawkins has included writing from a diverse range of scientists, some of whom need no introduction, and some of whose works have become modern classics, while others may be less familiar - but all convey the passion of great scientists writing about their science. - ;Every school library should own a copy of this book; every person with even a passing interest in science should read it. - Jerry A. Coyne, Times Literary Supplement.;Beautiful volume...A labour of love. - Steven Poole. The Guardian.;A glorius celebration of literary scientists. - Harry Richie Mail on Sunday;A brilliant collection... If you could only ever read one science book, this should probably be it. - New Scientist;It is a real treasure trove of unexpected pleasures. - Sunday Telegraph. Kenan Malik
