About This Book
In The Selfish Gene, Richard Dawkins argues that evolution is best understood by viewing genes as the central units of natural selection. Organisms are “survival machines” built by genes to ensure replication. Apparent altruism is explained by genes promoting their copies in others, especially relatives. Dawkins also introduces memes as cultural replicators that evolve like genes.
