Hardback. Condizione: Good. Despite the theory's age, The Blind Watchmaker is as prescient and timely as ever. The watchmaker belongs to the eighteenth-century theologian, William Paley, who argued that just as a watch is too complicated and functional to have sprung into existence by accident, so too must all living things, with their far greater complexity, be purposefully designed. Charles Darwin's brilliant discovery challenged the creationist arguments, but only Richard Dawkins could have written this elegant riposte. Natural selection: the unconscious, automatic, blind, yet essentially nonrandom process Darwin discovered--has no purpose in mind. If it can be said to play the role of a watchmaker in nature, it is the blind watchmaker. Dawkins has done more than anyone else now writing to make evolutionary biology comprehensible and acceptable to a general audience. --John Maynard SmithAs readable and vigorous a defense of Darwinism as has been published since 1859. --The Economist.…

Hardback. Condizione: As new. Condizione sovraccoperta: As new. First American Edition. Almost twenty-five years after "The Blind Watchmaker" first appeared in print, Tim Radford gave a new assessment of Richard Dawkins' book in the "Guardian," in which he said, "It endures in print because it must be one of the best books ever to address, patiently and persuasively, the question that has baffled bishops and disconcerted dissenters alike: how did nature achieve its astonishing complexity and variety?" Though Dawkins has been in the popular eye most recently as an evangelist for atheism, it's probably best to remember that his education is in zoology and evolutionary biology, and he made a name for himself in explaining those fields for common readers with grace and style. As Radford also said about "The Blind Watchmaker, it is "leavened by lyrical riffs upon metaphor that have always been his trademark" and that, "All the way through the book, he seizes happy analogies, bright metaphors and shining images to light up his passion and our darkness." Our copy is a first printing of the first American edition, published and printed in 1986. It is in As New condition, with only the very slight rubbing on the dust jacket that occurs on books that have been on the shelf for a long time. The pages and binding are pristine and are tight enough to make the book feel unread. The book is quarter-bound with tan paper-cover boards and black cloth covering the spine, which has bright gold stamped lettering. A great find for collectors, but also for readers. Photos are forthcoming or immediately on request. Pyle, Liz (illustratore).…
