gareththomas16 replied to gareththomas16's discussion 'The Magic of Reality, Richard Dawkins' in the group Read Atheist"I only discovered that it was aimed at children and young adults after I read it. I'm quite glad about this as I don't think I'd have enjoyed it as much. As you might expect, it's a fairly straightforward read. That said, I…"

JoAnna Hill replied to gareththomas16's discussion 'The Magic of Reality, Richard Dawkins' in the group Read Atheist"What you may not know is that Dawkins wrote this book specifically for 9 year olds and up.

I bought this book as an iphone app (£9.99 in the UK). It's an excellently made app which combines illustrations, animations and text. I'm up to chapter 8 of 12 at present and I'll save a full review until I've finished it. However, after a disappointing start, I must say it's picking up pace and I'm enjoying it. Anyone else read/reading this (as an app or a book)? G ps here a link to read about the book and the app: …See More

Newt Gingrich Says No Atheists in the White House
"The British press would have a field day if a politician in the UK made comments like that. I'm glad that here at least religious politicians are marginalised and placed in the same 'extreme' (a little harsh) category as the far…"
