Well, you might come to your senses. :-)

I'm not sure. There is much less evolutionary biology - and most of it has been in Dawkins's earlier books, often several times - and the same is true of the regular mocking of creationists.

The discussion of the possible biological or cultural imperatives for religion is quite interesting. I am normally quite unable to understand why any rational educated person should be religious [1] and Dawkins goes some way towards a possible explanation.

There's quite a bit about the political machinations of the religious right in America, too.

[1] Honestly, I'm not trying to launch TGGD here. This is the literal truth.
