Het verhaal van onze voorouders: Een pelgrimstocht naar de oorsprong van het leven.

Samenvatting

The renowned biologist and thinker Richard Dawkins presents his most expansive work a comprehensive look at evolution, ranging from the latest developments in the field to his own provocative views. Loosely based on the form of Chaucer's Canterbury Tales, Dawkins's Tale takes us modern humans back through four billion years of life on our planet. As the pilgrimage progresses, we join with other organisms at the forty "rendezvous points" where we find a common ancestor.
