About This Book

Richard Dawkins explores the intricate complexity of living organisms, explaining how evolutionary adaptation through natural selection creates the illusion of design. Using the metaphor of Mount Improbable, he illustrates how life ascends peaks of immense complexity through gradual, cumulative steps rather than sudden leaps of chance.
