The Most Grandiose Show on Earth

Published in 1859, Charles Darwin's book “On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection” shocked Western society. However, Darwin could hardly have imagined that the storm he raised would not settle even after a century and a half. Although serious scientists and many theologians now acknowledge the validity of evolutionism, millions of people continue to reject it. Richard Dawkins — a world-renowned biologist, science communicator, atheist, rationalist, “Darwin's Rottweiler” — undertakes to convince any unbiased reader that evolution is not “just a theory,” but a fact thoroughly supported by evidence.
