PROFESSOR Richard Dawkins gets a lot of stick. The British evolutionary biologist has been criticised for being "Darwin's Rottweiler", that is, for being hectoring, joyless and "fundamentalist" in the service of the evolutionary cause.
But after reading his latest, The Greatest Show on Earth: The Evidence For Evolution, I have to admit to some sympathy with his frustration with what he calls "history-deniers", though not always for his tone and style.
