Even if you are not a fan (yet) of Terry Pratchett, this book is worth reading: The Science of Discworld IV: Judgement Day In the discussion section Cohen and Stewart re-examine the theory of evolution and the changes in the idea over the years. They also explore how scientific theories happen in general, and how they differ from other ways of thinking. They also point out how many religions have created Creation stories (some remarkably similar) and God(s) and how this thinking can be quite introspective suggesting that the existence of the universe is purely for the benefit of human beings as opposed to most scientific belief that the universe would still exist even if human beings did not exist.
