About the product How does natural selection work? Is it a sufficient explanation for the complexity of living organisms? Is it possible that a blind, uncontrollable force could create such complex devices as the human eye or the echolocation apparatus in bats? Even Darwin convincingly answered these questions, and science with each new decade provides more and more evidence of his correctness, but many still doubt it. The book of the famous English biologist, popularizer of science and fighter against creationism Richard Dawkins «The Blind Watchmaker» defends the evolutionary view of the world and debunks the myths that exist around Darwinian theory. However, Dawkins is never limited to one problem of a specific scientific discipline — ultimately he speaks about the philosophical foundations of the scientific worldview as a whole. The author’s wit and broad erudition allow him to easily operate with examples from various fields — from computer programming to Shakespeare, and this probably also played a role in the fact that «The Blind Watchmaker» has remained a bestseller for almost three decades.
