Richard Dawkins - The Ancestor's Tale /The Blind Watchmaker (2 x Paperbacks)

RICHARD DAWKINS - - 2 Paperback Books:

1) THE ANCESTOR'S TALE - A Pilgrimage to the Dawn of Life.

A journey of four billion years. We, modern human beings, are the pilgrims, and we are travelling back in time to see out our ancestors. Simultaneously every other living creature is setting off on its own journey with the same mission. Each pilgrim tells its tale along the way, and covers the processes involved in the unfolding of life on Earth.

A paperback published in 2005 by Phoenix Books (£9.99 r.r.p.)

2) THE BLIND WATCHMAKER

A brilliant and controversial book which demonstrates that evolution by natural selection - the unconscious, automatic, blind yet essentially non-random process discovered by Darwin - is the only answer to the biggest question of all: why do we exist?

A paperback published in 1991 by Penguin Books (£8.99 r.r.p.)
