Review quote:
the sort of popular science writing that makes the reader feel like a genius
Reissued in new covers, this is the book that tells of the selfish gene. It is a world of savage competition, ruthless exploitation, and deceit. But what of the acts of apparent altruism in nature the bees who commit suicide when they sting to protect the hive, for example? Professor Dawkins holds out the hope that our species has the power to rebel against the designs of the selfish gene. This is Richard Dawkins' first and most famous book, selling over a million copies worldwide so far, and translated into 21 languages.
