If you enjoy big ideas delivered with sharp clarity, this is science writing at its most absorbing.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"cs3388614\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cs95B300B\"\u003e\u003co:p\u003e \u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"cs3388614\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cs95B300B\"\u003eDawkins explores how natural selection leaves clues everywhere: in camouflage, in anatomy, in biochemistry, even in the odd compromises and apparent “mistakes” that evolution can’t quite smooth away. Rather than a straight history lesson, the book reads like a guided investigation—showing how a skilled observer could “read” an organism to reconstruct the environments its ancestors faced. Along the way, he revisits debates around the gene’s-eye view and pushes into thought-provoking territory about what genes really are.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"cs3388614\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cs95B300B\"\u003e\u003co:p\u003e \u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"cs3388614\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cs95B300B\"\u003ePerfect for readers of **evolution**, **Darwinian natural selection**, **genetics**, and **science writing**, as well as fans of Dawkins’ earlier books.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"cs3388614\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cs95B300B\"\u003e\u003co:p\u003e \u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"cs3388614\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cs95B300B\"\u003eAdd it to your basket and see the living world with newly curious eyes.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dear Village","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52221813489940,"sku":"9781804548097","price":24.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/6460\/0596\/files\/9781804548097_1.jpg?v=1773283985","url":"https:\/\/dearvillage.com.au\/products\/the-genetic-book-of-the-dead-a-darwinian-reverie","provider":"Dear Village","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
