With this tremendous follow-up to his blockbuster The God Delusion, Richard Dawkins takesadvocates of intelligent design by the scruff of the neck and unfolds the evidence for evolution with characteristicpanache.In 2008, a gallup poll showed that 44% of Americans polled believed God had created man in his present form within the last 10,000 years. In a PewForum poll in the same year, 42% of those polled believed that all life on earth has existed in its present form since the beginning of time. In this environment, inwhichCreationism is being taught in schools and educators are being asked to ''teach the controversy'' behind evolution, a delightfully exasperated Dawkins has decided totell us how it all really works. In visceral, crystalline prose, Dawkins sets up each creationist objection to evolutionand takes it to task,bit by bitdestroying the idea that the natural worldneeded an intelligent designer.But this is more than an argument.Thisis a thrilling tourinto our distant past and into the interstices of all life on earth. Taking us through the case for evolution step-by-step, Dawkins looks at DNA, selective breeding, anatomical similarity, molecular family trees, geography, fossils vestiges and imperfections, the stages of human evolution, and theformula for a strong scientific theory -- tearing down the Intelligent Design theory in the process. This will be the last word in the evolution debate, and it will add the legions of God Delusion readersto the already science-hungry audience who bought the latest Steven Pinkeror devoured Bill Bryson’s The History of Nearly Everything. The God Delusion stimulated, even set the terms of, one of the world’s most vigorous public debates: the question of God’sexistence. The Greatest Show on Earth will provide readers with the tools to join this vital debate effectively.And Dawkins’ infectious passion for the world’s beauty will convert all but the most doctrinaire creationists.
这本书完全是当作一本科普书而读的,作者围绕进化是一个无可回避的事实而进行探讨。 它分以下几个目录: 第一章 只是一个理论? 第二章 狗,牛和白菜 第三章 报春花的宏进化之路 第四章 安静与缓慢的时间 第五章 就发生在我们眼前 第六章 缺失的环...
评分Dawkins 确实是一位学识深厚的科学家,书中提供了极丰富的案例,实验和分析,读起来非常有趣。而让我有些意外的是他对编程也不是门外汉,在第二章中提到的几个进化模拟程序 biomorphs,conchomorphs 和arthromorphs都是很有意思的东西,网上能搜到互动版本动手玩,我自己也impl...
