Hello Richard,
I'm not a native Spanish speaker but I know the language well enough to be disappointed in the translation of the title of The God Delusion. Admittedly, "delusion" seems to be a difficult word to translate into Spanish and the book is known as "El Espejismo de Dios".
An "espejismo" is something like a mirage or an optical illusion, which is not quite the same thing.
Perhaps a native Spanish speaker could comment on this.
The Greatest Show on Earth, in Spanish, is simply titled "Evolución".
