Richard Dawkins' brand of evolutionary theory - which says that natural selection acts at the level of genes, not organisms or species - seems to dominate our understanding of what Darwinism is all about. This work explores the historical, philosophical and scientific arguments that are beginning to show the cracks in Dawkins' thinking.
