“I certainly want [my readers] to think like scientists – to think critically, skeptically – but I also want them to be imbued with the poetry of the universe, the poetry of reality, which is what science is.”

Richard Dawkins, echoing the famous words of Richard Feynman and Carl Sagan, in this great BBC 4 Radio interview. 

Also see Dawkins’s The Magic of Reality, a children’s book debunking religious mythology with the awe of science.
