Richard Dawkins is not known for his delicate approach in persuading people that atheism is the way to go, but his new audiobook looks decidedly less abrasive.

"Despite his criticism of superstitions, he allows, with a chuckle, 'I’m only human. Intellectually I don’t believe in ghosts, but I might be reluctant to spend the night in a haunted house, being there alone in the middle of the night.'"
