Richard Dawkins | Unweaving The Rainbow
In his book, Prof. Richard Dawkins, discusses 'The wonder of the universe and our place in it is revealed through science in ways otherwise impossible to appreciate or imagine. Dawkins urges us to see that the desire for what is beautiful should not lead us awaya from the search for what is true.
Still less should we be tempted towards the false refuges of pseudoscience and superstition. Whether in the analysis of starlight or sound waves, animal footprints or human DNA, the seemingly miraculous worlds that science continues to reveal should inspire rather than undermine the poetic imagination.'
