Greatest Show on Earth, The

Very well Evie evidence based writing.Thoroughly enjoyed and cleared quite a bit misunderstanding.I feel this type of book should be part part of education in every country in the world.

Dawkins - lucid and educative as always when dwelling on Evolution.

Very good book.

Not easy to have your religious foundation so subtly taken for a ride. Hard facts , 0 appeasement and 100% science and common sense. Can be understood by anybody with basic education

Best explanation about evolution with lots of examples.

A bit hard to read, but if you have patience and general scientific knowledge it will be understandable easily. Not for beginners but for students with science background.

I just became his fan. This is my first book by this great man and from the first page itself, I became a fan. This is that kind of book which we all should read. I don't have words to describe how much I fell in love with this book. This is simple and elegant and the way he wrote it, its really a great talent. A person like myself, for whom biology is like an alien language, this is so simple and easy to understand. I recommend this book for anyone. Everyone will surely like this. I can't even find a reason for not loving this book and the author.

If you are confused by the plethora of information on evolution in the internet, then TGSE is the best way to get your head around it.

Llegó en excelente estado. Una gran lectura

The book is extremely rich, in what the evidence of evolution, comes as a tangent and therefore explain several other subjects related to biology.In addition, it has surprisingly beautiful graphics, infographics and images. Under this bias, Richard Dawkins presents a very scientific writing, however at the same time filled with a simplicity that makes it possible for anyone to understand the origins and development of life in the whole planet.

Richard Dawkins, con su maravillosa redacción, te lleva de la mano a observar la abrumadora evidencia que prueba la evolución como un hecho natural. No sólo con fósiles (que ya bastaría), sino también explica cómo funcionan los distintos "relojes naturales", mutaciones, y por supuesto, la selección natural.Si te sientes confiado con las teorías creacionistas, no leas este libro. Te hará reformular todas tus creencias. Abre tu mente y déjate impresionar por lo que el autor llama "The Greatest Show on Earth".Definitivamente uno de mis favoritos.

And since you probably haven not, it is a must-read. You will have fun and you will be much closer to understand natural evolution. A theory so simple to outline, and yet so beautifully intricate in its consequences. Not to mention the breadth of what it explains: life on earth. You want to understand how come we are here?, read on.

Chiunque abbia un pur vago interesse a capire la teoria dell'evoluzione non può non leggere questo volume ricco di informazioni ma assolutamente non noioso. Non è certo narrativa, ma non è nemmeno un asettico saggio scientifico. Traspare da ogni pagina la passione di Dawkins per gli argomenti trattati e la sempre viva ammirazione quasi fanciullesca per la straordinaria complessità degli organismi viventi e dei meccanismi che legano chimica, biologia, evoluzione.Filo conduttore sono i frequenti riferimenti all'assurdità delle tesi creazioniste, che si mostrano tanto più insostenibili e prive di spessore man mano che vengono esposti i meccanismi biologici che corroborano le intuizioni di Darwin.Ritengo che per apprezzare il volume sia sufficiente una preparazione scientifica di base (scuola superiore).
