À propos de cet audio

 Richard Dawkins transformed our view of God in his blockbuster, The God Delusion, which sold millions of copies in English alone. He revolutionized the way we see natural selection in the seminal bestseller The Selfish Gene. Now, he launches a fierce counterattack against proponents of "Intelligent Design" in his New York Times bestseller, The Greatest Show on Earth.

"Intelligent Design" is being taught in our schools; educators are being asked to "teach the controversy" behind evolutionary theory. There is no controversy. Dawkins sifts through rich layers of scientific evidence—from living examples of natural selection to clues in the fossil record; from natural clocks that mark the vast epochs wherein evolution ran its course to the intricacies of developing embryos; from plate tectonics to molecular genetics—to make the airtight case that "we find ourselves perched on one tiny twig in the midst of a blossoming and flourishing tree of life and it is no accident, but the direct consequence of evolution by non-random selection." His unjaded passion for the natural world turns what might have been a negative argument, exposing the absurdities of the creationist position, into a positive offering to the reader: nothing less than a master’s vision of life, in all its splendor.©2009 Richard Dawkins; (P)2009 Simon & Schuster Science Sciences biologiques Paléontologie Histoire naturelle

An exciting tale, tailored together by evidence of evolution while slowly and methodically dealing with other possibilities in a way that is easy to understand. A beautiful summary of how life has come to be as we know it, but that also has a worrisome message regarding science teaching.

A wonder needed in dark times

Another fascinating book by Dawkins. From dispelling myths around creationism and intelligent design to delving deep into experiments in evolutionary biology over years, Dawkins makes it easy to understand for anyone. The narration is excellent as well!

Dawkins never ceases to amaze me

The account of why evolution is a fact, not a "mere theory". Well written.

Discusses the fundamentals of evolution; genes, natural selection, artificial selection, etc.. Dawkins provides a breadth of evidence ranging from controlled experiments to fossil records with many other stops along the way. Debunks the common rebuts of evolution which are often levied by evolution-deniers.

The narration by Richard & his wife Lalla is enjoyable. The two compliment each other well and prevent monotony for the listener.

Great read

If you have any interest in evolution or natural selection then this is the book for you. Some of the experiments that people have done are incredible with really powerful results. This book breaks them down and explains it in a way that just makes so much sense

Outstanding Book

It was nice to have the book narrated by the author. Furthermore the information was articulated in an easy to understand way for the most part. Most of this book was listened to while i was doing other things (chores, walking the dog) there were a few instances which required full attention to comprehend what was being said, but the author tells you when approaching a hard to understand area. Really well done, will give their other books a shot too.

great info, read by the author
