In this continuation of his autobiography, Richard Dawkins explores the second half of his life, highlighting key individuals, institutions, and ideas that have inspired him. He vividly recounts his twenty-five years teaching at Oxford, blending wit, anecdotes, and digressions. Dawkins pays tribute to colleagues and students, capturing the quirks of an ancient establishment while respecting its dedication to learning and discovery. He shares experiences as a traveling scientist, from fieldwork on the Panama Canal to prestigious conferences with notable scientific figures, both prominent and eccentric. Dawkins also reflects on his interactions with publishers, television producers, and debate partners, particularly during the period following the release of The God Delusion in 2006, which established him as a leading voice in atheism. Most importantly, he revisits his evolving ideas about science throughout his distinguished career as a thinker, teacher, and writer. This narrative invites readers into a stimulating world of discovery, featuring a captivating cast of characters, all brought to life by Dawkins's exceptional storytelling.
