Whatever your opinion of Intelligent Design,’ you’ll find Stove’s criticism of what he calls Darwinism’ difficult to stop reading. Stove’s blistering attack on Richard Dawkins’ selfish genes’ and memes’ is unparalleled and unrelenting. A discussion of spiders who mimic bird droppings is alone worth the price of the book. Darwinian Fairytales should be read and pondered by anyone interested in sociobiology, the origin of altruism, and the awesome process of evolution. -Martin Gardner, author of Did Adam and Eve Have Navels?: Debunking Pseudoscience | Darwinian Fairytales by David Stove, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
