DESCRIPTION:"A century from now historians will take note of a mere handful of 
 scientific luminaries from the second half of the 20th century who changed 
 not just their science but their culture.\nFirst among them will surely be 
 Richard Dawkins, unquestionably one of the great minds of our time who is 
 also an eloquent writer."  -- Michael Shermer, Scientific American 
 columnist\n\nIn Brief Candle in the Dark, Dawkins explores the halls of 
 intellectual inquiry and stardom he encountered after the publication of 
 The Selfish Gene; affectionately lampooning the world of academia, 
 publishing, and television. Studding the pages with funny stories about the 
 great men and women he's known, Dawkins offers a candid look at the events 
 and ideas that encouraged him to shift his attention to the intersection of 
 culture, religion and science, culminating in that stunning blockbuster, 
 The God Delusion,  which was a huge factor in transforming him into the 
 vibrant and controversial public intellectual he is today.\n\nAmong 
 Dawkins' other books are: An Appetite for Wonder, Climbing Mount 
 Improbable, Unweaving the Rainbow, The Ancestor's Tale and The Greatest 
 Show on Earth. He is a fellow of the Royal Society and was the inaugural 
 holder of the Simonyi Chair for the Public Understanding of Science at 
 Oxford University.\n\nHosted by Brian Edwards-Tiekert, the host of KPFA's
