Peut-on encore croire en Dieu ? Une introduction à l'athéisme moderne. Pendant longtemps, Dieu a été l'explication à tous les phénomènes étranges qui nous entourent. Après tout, comment expliquer les merveilles et la complexité de la nature sans imagine un créateur pour tout orchestrer ?

The Blind Watchmaker, knowledgably narrated by author Richard Dawkins, is as prescient and timely a book as ever.

Charles Darwin's brilliant discovery challenged the creationist arguments; but only Richard Dawkins could have written this elegant riposte.
