====== 2010.09.09 - growing up in the universe ====== {{ :blog:2010:09:richard_dawkins_-_bombardier_beetle.jpg?250|Richard Dawkins during one of the christmas lectures (taken from http://www.digitaljournal.com/img/1/5/1/7/7/5/i/4/7/4/o/Richard_Dawkins_-_Bombardier_beetle.jpg)}} recently a friend of mine, sent me interesting link -- christmas lectures of [[wp>Richard Dawkins]]((see also [[http://richarddawkins.net]])): [[http://richarddawkins.net/videos/3586-growing-up-in-the-universe-now-on-youtube|growing up in the universe]] (lectures took place in 1991). this is the "evolution explained", in the details, with many the examples. since it is all in simple language, that could be understand by anyone, i think children would be the great audience. it's the simplicity combined with knowledge, making it interesting for the whole family to see -- children can learn the basics while adults, that are already familiar with [[wp>Darwin's]] theory, can see interesting examples how does it work, taken from real-world. enjoy! :)
