Taking a short break from our usual music related updates, today we are going to step into the book world as we bring you a book review. This is part of a new section which will be launching soon and we will have more information on that in the very near future.

The book in question is the non-fiction release "The Magic of Reality" from world famous author Richard Dawkins. Available in Hardback as well as Kindle format, this week will mark the release of "The Magic of Reality" in Paperback. Check out the following extract from the blurb:

'Packed with clever thought experiments, dazzling illustrations and jaw-dropping facts, The Magic of Reality explains a stunningly wide range of natural phenomena. What is stuff made of? How old is the universe? Why do the continents look like disconnected pieces of a puzzle? What causes tsunamis? Why are there so many kinds of plants and animals? Who was the first man, or woman? This is a page-turning, graphic detective story that not only mines all the sciences for its clues but primes the reader to think like a scientist as well.'

Check out our review below and see what rating we gave it!

Richard dawkins,

This Pseudo so-called scientist, rather believe that we came from aliens then that there is a God.

He's ideas are based on darwin's ideas.

Problem with Darwin, that we hear a lot about his ideas of evolution.
But we never really took the time 2 really read any of his books.

For Example.
1. Darwin himself believed that he has proven the idea of evolution by looking at our
african brothers. He believed that our african brothers were the link
between apes and modern humans.
He even went as far as 2 say that these uncivilised africans. If you take them 2 Europe
they would learn how 2 be civilised. just like you teach an animal tricks.
But if you bring them back 2 their land, they would go back 2 their uncivilised ways.
2. He believed that the aryan race, was the highest evolved race. And 2 evolve futher.
They eventually have 2 wage war on the other species and eradicate them.

If we read or watch anything on Darwin nowadays they conviently never mention these
absurd theories of his.
No, they always clean up his image and ideas even in the history books that I was taught.
Look for example at the movie "Creation" how they portray this man.

When you confront the Atheist with this. They Acknowledge it and dismiss it as an product
of his time.
this is the man who brought you this Idea.
