Dawkins and the Selfish Gene by Oliver Curry

Richard Dawkins made famous the theory of the 'selfish gene' - inciting one of the most controversial debates in science today. His views on evolution and genetics widely misunderstood, Dawkins has been the target for a barrage of spurious accusations. Yet he has held steadfastly to the belief in the universal objectivity of science, an unfashionable contemporary heir to the Enlightenment ideal.
Ed Sexton holds degrees in Biology and Philosophy of Science, and specialised in the philosophy of biological sciences. He is currently a freelance writer and journalist.
