Richard Dawkins "The Magic of Reality" @ EKU
( 2 of 5 )
Eastern Kentucky University's 2011-2012 Chautauqua Lecture Series
Born in Nairobi, Kenya, Professor Richard Dawkins is one of the world's leading scientific intellectuals, specializing in evolutionary biology. Dawkins studied zoology at Balliol College at Oxford, completing a BA in zoology and remaining there to later complete his Masters and his D. Phil. Dawkins went on to become an Assistant Professor in Zoology at the University of California at Berkeley but returned to Oxford as a junior lecturer in Zoology and, in time, was awarded a Fellowship at New College. He later held the position of Charles Simonyi Professor of the Public Understanding of Science at Oxford University.
Dawkins is best known for his books which include: The Selfish Gene, The Extended Phenotype, The Blind Watchmaker, and The God Delusion. The last of these, widely influential and controversial, has sold 1.5 million copies in its English-language edition and been translated into 31 other languages. The Wall Street Journal said his "passion is supported by an awe-inspiring literary craftsmanship." The New York Times Book Review has hailed him as a writer who "understands the issues so clearly that he forces his reader to understand them too."
