The Greatest Show on Earth
The Evidence for Evolution
Book • 2009
In this book, Richard Dawkins provides a detailed and evidence-based argument for the fact of evolution.
He sifts through various layers of scientific evidence, including examples of natural selection, clues from the fossil record, natural clocks, developing embryos, plate tectonics, and molecular genetics.
Dawkins aims to expose the absurdities of creationist arguments and present a positive vision of life as a result of evolution by non-random selection.
The book is particularly timely, addressing systematic opposition to evolution in schools and the broader public.
