The Greatest Show on Earth: The Evidence for Evolution by Richard Dawkins

4.0

This book’s target audience is supposed to be creationists, but since Dawkins is a famous (infamous?) atheist, I really doubt any creationists will actually read it. If they do, they will find some good evidence for evolution, but also a lot of speculations that are interesting to a general reader but will most likely make any skeptic suspicious. For those who are not creationists, the books reads a little like an Evolution for Dummies, which is actually exactly the reason why I like it. It describes some interesting experiments and observations that provide evidence for evolution in a very easy to follow way, which is great for a biology ignoramus like me. It’s good for some laughs as well, sometimes at creationism’s expense. Yet another reason why I liked it a lot, but a creationist probably won’t.
