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.
