"Darwin's Ghost ... The Origin of Species UPDATED" by Steve Jones. 350 pages of modern findings updating each of the fourteen chapters in Darwin's original work.

Among the eight reviews on the first page is this from the The Independent on Sunday...

"This is a delightful book, infused with wit and panache, and as enthralling in its own way as was Darwin's original ... Wonderfully conceived and gloriously executed."

Another review, from the New York Times, reads ...

"Jones has rewritten Darwin's narrative with the help of the latest insights from evolutionary biology ... Adapting the rich anectodal style much favored by Darwin, but seasoning it with a good dose of the sardonic humor that readers will recognize from Jone's previous books, Jones demonstrates how completely modern technology has vindicated Darwin's claims."

Jones is living in a dream world. Evolution has been overwhelmingly refuted by a number of independent studies to such an extent that any normal science theory would have been abandoned decades ago under the circumstances. Evolution survives through power and intimidation and not because of any truth value. It survives because it is a religion and not a science theory. It is a pure pseudoscience according to Popper’s dictum i.e. when no logical disproof will suffice in the eyes of adherents, then the criteria of being unfalsifiable is met.
