First published 2003
In this bold collection, evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins dismantles the fallacies of faith with ruthless precision. From debunking creationist myths to exposing the injustices of the legal system, Dawkins wields reason like a scalpel, cutting through the obscurantism that clouds our understanding of the natural world. Yet beneath his incisive intellect beats the heart of a man in awe of life's breathtaking complexity, a "Devil's Chaplain" whose profound appreciation for science is matched only by his disdain for the delusions of religion.
