| 7 | VideoInsurance Policy: Two Eggs, One Survivor - featuring Richard Dawkins | Richard Dawkins explains how Nazca Boobies, Blue Footed Boobies and Gannetts all lay two eggs, but usually only rear one chick. This evolved adaptation may seem cruel to us, but the genes for this insurance policy get passed on through the surviving chicks to future generations. "In May 2007 Josh and I were among those who went to Galapagos with a large group from the Center for Inquiry. As we walked with the guided parties over the islands, Josh took every opportunity to film the wildlife. Occasionally he would turn the camera on me, and I would ad lib a few words about whatever animals we were looking at. These 'vignettes' were unscripted and unrehearsed, and there was no time for any "Take 2" repetitions, because the guided walk was moving on." - Richard Dawkins If you enjoy the video, and would like to help us make more videos like this, please consider donating $1 (or any other amount you'd like) to The Richard Dawkins Foundation for Reason and Science at http://richarddawkinsfoundation.org Also see: http://richarddawkins.net | 8/9/09 | Gratis | Visa i iTunes |

Psykolog o Humanist
En fantastisk serie med små kunskapsbitar genomarbetat och professionellt framfört. Mycket värdefullt. Oerhört informativt.
Basic science
I belive anyone of reason would find this interesting. After I saw some of these I really wanted to sit down and find out more about the subject matter and for us with a higher education it might be abit shallow.
