"Gift Quality"
Climbing Mount Improbable is about probability and how it applies to the theory of evolution It debunks claims by creationists about the probability of naturalistic mechanisms like natural selection
The main metaphorical treatment is of a geographical landscape upon which evolution can ascend only gradually and cannot climb cliffs (that is known as an adaptive landscape) Dawkins gives ideas about a seemingly complex mechanism coming about from many gradual steps that were previously unseen 340 pp.

Sobre Stanley Louis Remarkable Books (IOBA)
Seller of high quality books and ephemera, emphasizing older and unusual items, such as signed or association copies. I try to offer the kind of books, at fair prices, that appeal to me, hoping that they will appeal to others also.
