There are two ways of looking at the world - through faith and superstition or through the rigours of logic, observation and evidence. In his documentaries, evolutionary biologist, atheist and best-selling author, Professor Richard Dawkins, makes a compelling argument for how reason and a respect for evidence are the source of human progress and our safeguard against fundamentalists and those who profit obscuring the truth.

"The Genius of Charles Darwin"
In 1859, Charles Darwin published 'Origin of Species' - and nothing would ever be the same again. Evolution by natural selection is probably the most powerful idea anyone ever hat.
In this three-part series for Channel 4, Richard Dawkins, the evolutionary scientist and bestselling author, takes us on a journey of discovery. How does evolution work? How do we know it's true, and why do some people still deny it? As evolved creatures, do we have to be cllous, selfish and immoral? Dawkins echoes Darwin's emphatic 'No'.
