About this book

The Selfish Gene, first published in 1976, is a pioneering work on evolutionary biology. The book expands on the main theory of George C. Williams’s “Adaptation and Natural Selection” (1966).

In the foreword to the 30th-anniversary edition of the book, Dawkins mentioned that he should have heeded Tom Maschler’s advice and named the book “The Immortal Gene.”
