About this ebook
How did the replication bomb we call ”life” begin and where in the world, or rather, in the universe, is it heading? Writing with characteristic wit and an ability to clarify complex phenomena (the New York Times described his style as ”the sort of science writing that makes the reader feel like a genius”), Richard Dawkins confronts this ancient mystery.

This book gave me a new insight into how evolution works, and why we have such a diverse amount of species on this planet. "Nature is neither crul, nor kind, it is indifferent" -Richard Dawkins
