Rigorous Analysis and Clear Writing
Writing today in the New York Times, Nicholas Wade reviews "Richard Dawkins: How a Scientist Changed the Way We Think," a collection of essays about "The Selfish Gene" and the impact its had on our thinking.
Wade writes that the essays present a vivid picture of how one man, by force of rigorous analysis and clear writing, taught a generation of biologists how to think about evolution.
