An appetite for wonder

The making of a scientist. A memoir

Buch

In AN APPETITE FOR TRUTH-a first memoir, characterized by his trademark vicious wit and dazzling eloquence-Richard Dawkins tells the fascinating story of how this hugely influential man learned to think, to ask questions, and to forge great ideas. From his idyllic childhood in colonial Kenya to the raucous debates at Berkeley and Oxford, Dawkins shares here, for the first time, the details of his intellectual awakening and the thrilling path to the creation of The Selfish Gene.
