A Devil's Chaplain

A book collecting selected essays and other writings by the British zoologist Richard Dawkins.

The book's title is a reference to a famous quotation of Charles Darwin, made in reference to Darwin's lack of belief in how "a perfect world" was designed by God: "What a book a devil's chaplain might write on the clumsy, wasteful, blundering low and horridly cruel works of nature!"
