Join us at T2F to celebrate science, reason, and Darwin’s birthday.

Charles Darwin was a British scientist who laid the foundations of the theory of evolution and transformed the way we think about the natural world.

The Genius of DarwinIn The Genius of Charles Darwin, Richard Dawkins presents the ultimate guide to Darwin and his revolutionary theory of evolution by natural selection which Dawkins considers the most important idea ever to occur to a human mind. In this powerful three-part polemical series, Dawkins explains who Charles Darwin was, how he developed his theory, what it is, and why it matters. He reveals how Darwin changed forever the way we see ourselves, the world and our place in it, and hopes to convince us that “evolution is a fact, backed by undeniable evidence”.
