El gen egoísta, de Richard Dawkins, es una obra que explora la teoría de la evolución desde la perspectiva del gen, argumentando que los genes son las unidades fundamentales de la selección natural. Esta edición del 40 aniversario incluye un nuevo epílogo del autor, que discute la continua relevancia de estas ideas en la biología evolutiva actual, así como los prefacios y el prólogo originales, y extractos de las primeras reseñas. El libro examina conceptos como el altruismo y el egoísmo en el comportamiento animal desde un punto de vista genético, ofreciendo una perspectiva provocadora sobre la evolución y la vida.
Richard Dawkins is a British evolutionary biologist, zoologist, science communicator and author. He is an emeritus fellow of New College, Oxford. In 1995, he was named the first Simonyi Professor for the Public Understanding of Science, a position he held until 2008, and is on the advisory board of the University of Austin. Dawkins has won several academic and writing awards, among them the 2005 Shakespeare Prize and the 2006 Lewis Thomas Prize. Presenting the latter, Paul Nurse said "In eloquent, evocative prose, Richard Dawkins conveys the certainty that, rather than diminishing the myriad beauties of the universe and extinguishing wonderment at its mysteries, science reveals truths that are yet more awe-inspiring than the mysteries they solve."
