The Greatest Show on Earth - Evidence for evolution

One of Richard Dawkin's better books that outlines the reasons why he sees evolution powered by natural selection as the only plausible explanation for the wonderful breadth of beauty in the natural world around us.

He gives lucid  arguments against the common creationist explanations though not in such reactionary terms as some of his other works.

I hope it becomes a school textbook - it would inspire a wonder in understanding the natural world.
