THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER. Science in the Soul is a
kaleidoscopic argument for the power and glory of science: the
wonder of scientific discovery; the practical necessity of
scientific endeavour to society; and the importance of the
scientific way of thinking - particularly in today's `post-truth'
world. With an introduction and new commentary by the author in
dialogue with himself across the years, the essays, journalism,
lectures and letters gathered here range over subjects from
evolution and Darwinian natural selection to the role of scientist
as prophet, whether science is itself a religion, the probability
of alien life in other worlds, and the beauties, cruelties and
oddities of earthly life in this one. A sparkling showcase for his
rapier wit, the clarity, precision and vigour he brings to an
argument, the beauty of his prose, the depth of his feeling and his
capacity for joy, Science in the Soul is further evidence of
Richard Dawkins' status as one of science's all-time great
communicators.
