October 13th, 2012 | by Maarten | published in Boeken Maarten | Comments Off on Richard Dawkins, The Greatest Show on Earth
The Greatest Show on Earth is a stunning counter-attack on creationists, followers of ‘Intelligent Design’ and all those who still question evolution as scientific fact. In this brilliant tour de force Richard Dawkins pulls together the incontrovertible evidence that underpins it: from living examples of natura selecetion to clues in the fossil record; from plate tectonics to molecular genetics.
September 20th, 2010 | by Maarten | published in Boeken Maarten | Comments Off on Charles Darwin, The Origin of Species and The Voyage of the Beagle
Easily the most influential book published in the nineteenth century, Darwin’s The Origin of Species is also that most unusual phenomenon, an altogether readable discussion of a scientific subject. On its appearance in 1859 it was immediately recognized by enthusiasts and detractors alike as a work of the greatest importance: its revolutionary theory of evolution by means of natural selection provoked a furious reaction that continues to this day.
The Origin of Species is here published together with Darwin’s earlier Voyage of the ‘Beagle’. This 1839 account of the journeys to South America and the Pacific islands that first put Darwin on the track of his remarkable theories derives an added charm from his vivid description of his travels in exotic places and his eye for the piquant detail.
