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

informative medium-paced

3.5

This was my first Richard Dawkins book and I'll happily read more of them. There were plenty of interesting points throughout the book and for the most part he avoided repeating the same points, which I've found to be a common  problem in popular science books. If you've watched, and enjoyed, videos of his lectures then you can take solace in knowing this book reads very much like one. I would rate it higher if the science behind some of the points was gone into more depth. The book clearly targets those who have an interest in understanding how the world works, but not necessarily coming from a science background.
