Meet The Author: Richard Dawkins
He’s the King of All the Atheists, and now Richard Dawkins is hammering home what he sees as his key argument against the existence of God. In his book, The Greatest Show on Earth, Dawkins aims to put the theory of evolution in a factually unassailable position.
Here, at Adelaide Writers’ Week in 2010, he goes through his book chapter by chapter, and in doing so attempts to convince his audience of the absolute veracity of Darwin’s theories. Date: Mon, 01 Mar 2010 00:00:00 -0800 Location: Adelaide, Australia, Adelaide Writers’ Week, Australian Broadcasting Corporation

Interview with Nick Everitt on the Non-Existence of God (infidelguy.com)
‘The Non-Existence of God’ is an excellent introducctory text on philosophy of religion. Richard Spencer has a very good interview with the book’s author, discussing both refutations of arguments for theism and proposing some arguments for atheism. A very good antidote to the bullshit being peddled by the ignorant army of newspaper columnists who think every issue is 50/50.
