Unweaving The Rainbow

Science, Delusion and the Appetite for Wonder

This spellbinding book came later in my life, and it was the first book which tied poetry and science together in a way that I had not seen before. The rainbow is a so called optical illusion but we have learned a lot from it, and Richard Dawkins applies unweaving, not just to the rainbow, to but many other apsects of science and nature.  A must-have book.
