Klappentext zu „The Greatest Show on Earth “
Richard Dawkins revolutionized our view of God in his blockbuster, The God Delusion , which sold more than 1 million 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. Creationists object that the world is too elegant, too complex to have developed without an intelligent designer and that there is no evidence for Darwin's theory. Here Dawkins wields a devastating argument against such ignorance, sifting through rich layers of evidence to explain evolution. Though he exposes the absurdities of the Creationist argument along the way, his unjaded passion for the natural world turns what might have been a negative argument into a positive offering to the reader: nothing less than a master's vision of life, in all its splendor.
