Secret Science Club North: The 40th Anniversary of The Selfish Gene and Beyond with Richard Dawkins SOLD OUT

• Books & Literature
• Science & Health

Join evolutionary biologist and best-selling author Richard Dawkins to commemorate the 40th anniversary of The Selfish Gene and a lifetime of thinking and writing about science. Starting with The Selfish Gene—his classic exposition of evolutionary thought—Richard Dawkins gives a gene’s eye view of evolution that is imaginative, powerful, and stylistically brilliant.

Are our bodies merely vehicles for ensuring the immortality of our genes? How can selfish genes support kindness and altruism? Why does our understanding of the evolution of life matter?

The anniversary celebration continues and expands as Richard Dawkins discusses marking the 30th anniversary of the publication of The Blind Watchmaker, the 20th anniversary of Climbing Mount Improbable, and the 10th anniversary of The God Delusion.

As our knowledge of the genome grows by leaps and bounds in the 21st century, Richard Dawkins continues to change and challenge our view of Earth’s life forms and our own human experience.
