Review:What can you say but bravo to Dawkins for his clear and precise facts on evolution from the genetic evidence,DNA,fossils etc. This book goes in to the detective work of evolution unlike other books this tells you the facts and presents the evidence to back it up. Great book for anyone looking to get the strait facts on evolution. Read more

Review:This book is not really about the evolution vs creationism issue. That issue is settled in science and only lives on in the minds of the willfully ignorant, some of whom choose to launch an "internet crusade" against Dr Dawkins.

Rather, this book is an odessey of evolution, from ourselves through our ancestors back in time. It is a worthy tale, if a bit detailed at times. Our path has been very contingent and very fascinating. But for all the detail, the point is one of raw awe.

Review:'its just a theory' -- blah blah. Yea. Well, read this, reflect on it--THEN let us discuss it. Amazingly, most creationists have never really read up on evolution to discover how the mechanics of it really work. As Richard Dawkins shows us, it isn't just "random chance".

If you fear this book, get it and read it anyway so you at least know what you are railing against. Read more

Review:I really enjoyed this book, It could use more examples, but all in all the problems in the chapter are more than enough! Definitely pick up a solution manual and you should be able to master diff eqs!!!!!!!!!!! Read more

Review:There is a lot of thought-provoking information buried in this book. At times though, it would have been nice to have more detailed charts of timelines and evolutionary trees for we visual types. I'm rather dissatified with the Kindle version of teh book as the are many references to fact on certain pages numbers - we I cannot see! Read more

Review:I rented the Kindle version to use with my Galaxy Tab 3. It worked great. However, when I purchased a Surface 2 with Windows 8 RT it just said "this book is not available on Windows 8". So therefor I gave it three stars at it did work well with my Tab 3 just not my Surface 2. I'm sure this has to do with not everything having support for Window 8 at the moment. Read more

Review:Science fiction can only hope to emulate the deep intricacy and magnificent wonder that the reality of our universe can boast. While seemingly complex and evasive in nature, the laws that govern our universe hold answers that may astound even the most imaginitive. Kip Thorne has elegantly captured the "majic" of the universe and tamed the unknown into an understandable context.
Understadable, that is, for anyone you has ever wondered about the universe and the mysteries it holds. Thorne's ... Read more

Review:I just transferred and I took one semester of anatomy at Milligan College and one semester of anatomy at King University. King required the holes human anatomy and physiology book and I have 3 times the amount of trouble reading than one then the 1 Milligan had me which was visual anatomy and physiology 2. There are very few pictures and the wording is hard to comprehend. I just use my old anatomy text book instead of bothering with the Holes because it blows a fat one. It confused me on topics ...
