About product We are created by our genes. We animals exist to preserve them and only serve as machines to ensure their survival. The world of the selfish gene is a world of fierce competition, ruthless exploitation and deception. But what about the acts of altruism seen in nature: bees committing suicide when they sting an enemy to protect the hive, or birds risking their lives to warn a flock of the approach of a hawk? Does this contradict the fundamental law of gene selfishness? In no case! Dawkins shows that the selfish gene is also a cunning gene. And he cherishes the hope that the species Homo sapiens — the only one in the entire globe — will be able to rebel against the intentions of the selfish gene. The translation is verified against the 2006 jubilee English edition.
