The world-famous evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins presents the 1991 CHRISTMAS LECTURES on "our own growing knowledge of how life grows up in the universe". Combining beautiful writing with a range of illuminating demonstrations, the series features a variety of wildlife, a virtual reality Lecture Theatre, and special guests - including the late Douglas Adams reading an excerpt from The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.
