Description
This book presents a gene-centric view of evolution, arguing that genes are the primary units of natural selection. It explains how organisms act as vehicles for these genes, which seek to replicate themselves. Dawkins discusses concepts such as altruism and selfishness within the context of genetic behaviour, providing insights into how evolutionary processes shape life. The 40th anniversary edition includes a new epilogue reflecting on the relevance of these ideas in modern evolutionary biology, along with original prefaces and selected reviews.
