Richard Dawkins' amazing reformulation of the theory of natural selection has the rare distinction of having provoked as much excitement and interest outside the medical community as within it. His ideas have helped change the whole nature of the study of public biology, and also have forced hundreds to rethink their values about life. In his internationally best-selling, now traditional, volume, The Selfish Gene, Dawkins explains how the selfish gene may also be a subtle gene. The world of the selfish gene revolves around savage competition, ruthless exploitation, and deceit, and yet, Dawkins argues, serves of evident altruism do exist in dynamics. Bees, for example, will commit suicide when they sting to protect the hive, and wild birds will risk their lives to alert the flock of approaching hawk.
