Reviews
"Richard Dawkins writes with admirable clarity and Jana Lenzova illustrates in much the same way... A masterly investigation of all aspects of flight, human and animal. This is a beautifully produced book that will appeal across age groups'" --Alexander McCall-Smith "Dawkins writes with such an irresistible combination of mastery of the subject, delight in it, and vividness. A total pleasure" --Michael Frayn "Dawkins's prose feels as if it were cut with a laser ... Dawkins has always been an extraordinarily muscular, persuasive thinker. What feels new here is that he writes with such charm and warmth. Genial Uncle Richard, for me, is the most likeable Dawkins yet'" -- Sunday Times "He has made Darwinism cooler than it has any right to be" -- Sunday Times " PRAISE FOR RICHARD DAWKINS : 'Written with all the clarity and elegance of which Dawkins is a master. It should have a place in every school library - especially in the library of every 'faith' school' Philip Pullman, on The God Delusion . 'One of the best non-fiction writers alive today'" --Steven Pinker, "One of the best non-fiction writers alive today." --Steven Pinker "Written with all the clarity and elegance of which Dawkins is a master. It should have a place in every school library - especially in the library of every 'faith' school ." -- Philip Pullman, on The God Delusion, "One of the best non-fiction writers alive today." --Steven Pinker "It is richly illustrated, expensively weighty and just, well, smells good... Although the style is plain, Dawkins's prose feels as if it were cut with a laser.... Dawkins has always been an extraordinarily muscular, persuasive thinker. What feels new here is that he writes with such charm and warmth. Genial Uncle Richard, for me, is the most likeable Dawkins yet." -- Sunday Times "Written with all the clarity and elegance of which Dawkins is a master. It should have a place in every school library - especially in the library of every 'faith' school ." -- Philip Pullman, on The God Delusion
