Description: |
A fascinating, funny and fierce mixture of science, geo-politics and comedy from one of the UK's most influential comedians. |
Synopsis: |
In this witty, fact-packed A-Z, Newman takes the reader on a whirlwind tour from caring, sharing vampire bats to intelligent slime-mould; from pacifist baboons to Richard Dawkins wrestling naked with his postman; from the invisibility cloak of the Hawaiian bobtail squid to Francis 'DNA' Crick's belief that life on earth began with alien spaceships.The only comedian ever credited in a paper published in the science journal Nature, Newman explores how stunning scientific breakthroughs have turned received ideas of evolution upside-down. Now a BBC Radio 4 comedy series, the Entirely Accurate Encyclopaedia of Evolution is based on the stand up show Robert Newman's New Theory of Evolution. |
