The Hitchhiker’s guide to the Galaxy e Douglas Adams (1952-2001)
Vou voltar à carga com o assunto do post anterior, e chamar a atenção para este texto escrito por Richard Dawkins, professor da Universidade de Oxford e autor do controverso livro The Selfish Gene, notando a importância da cultura científica na escrita de Douglas Adams, aquando do seu falecimento.
What I didn't know was how deeply read he was in science. I should have guessed, for you can't understand many of the jokes in Hitchhiker if you don't know a lot of advanced science. And in modern electronic technology he was a real expert.
Richard Dawkins in The Guardian, Maio de 2001.
