Dawkins does for biology what Bart Ehrman does for Historical Criticism of the bible and Israel Finkelstein does for archaeology. They all summarize serious scholarship on the topics involved and put it into language that a layman can understand. There is only so much that one can do to make any of this stuff "exciting." But I have waded through actual peer-reviewed archaeological journal articles about pottery finds in Philistia and can assure you that a cure for insomnia has indeed been found if only someone could bottle it.
