Climbing Mount Improbable

Dawkins compares evolution to scaling a difficult mountain, which really helped me visualize gradual complexity. I wonder what motivated this particular analogy and how it evolved during the writing process.

The way Dawkins breaks down natural selection and genetic mutations made me see evolution in a new light. Has anyone else experienced a 'lightbulb' moment from the way these ideas were presented?

It feels like Dawkins is really aiming to dispel myths about evolution being 'just a theory' or 'random.' Do you think this book effectively changes minds or just deepens understanding for those already interested?
