Aaron reviewed Climbing Mount Improbable by Richard Dawkins
Review of 'Climbing Mount Improbable' on 'Goodreads'
3 stars
Richard Dawkins's condescending arrogance is getting on my nerves so much that I doubt I'll finish this...
But I stuck with it and I made it through. Interestingly, when Dick Dawkins is focusing on explaining how cool evolution is, and not bagging various religions (well mostly just the Western ones), he is actually a very entertaining, and also quite persuasive, writer.
The middle of the book is very much in that style. Dawkins seems keen to share with the reader something he finds very cool. He gets back to his God bashing at the end though, and the narrative loses a lot of its power because of it.
If you are already a convert, and can ignore the bigoted rants, this is a good interesting book on evolution.
