Richard Dawkins
Price: $155.00
Description: Clinton Richard Dawkins born March 26, 1941) is an eminent British ethologist, evolutionary theorist, and popular science writer who holds the Charles Simonyi Chair in the Public Understanding of Science at Oxford University.
Dawkins first came to prominence with his 1976 book The Selfish Gene which popularised the gene-centric view of evolution, and introduced the terms meme and memetics into the lexicon. In 1982, Dawkins made a major contribution to evolutionary theory with the publication of his book The Extended Phenotype which argued phenotypic effects could stretch far beyond an organism's body. He has since written several best-selling popular books on evolution, and appeared in a number of television programmes on evolutionary biology, creationism and religion. He is an atheist, Humanist, skeptic, "Bright," and - as a commentator on science, religion and politics - is among Britain's best known public intellectuals. In a play on Thomas Huxley's epithet "Darwin's bulldog", Dawkins' outspoken manner has led him to be dubbed Darwin's Rottweiler
